I have just spent the better part of my day trying to find the answer to
this
question -I had a hidden object appear in a document that I was given by a
client and I could not get it to "show itself"! The ^g allowed me to find
it
and delete it immediately - THANK YOU!

Suzanne and I discovered that part of the intractability of this problem
was
due to the fact that the chart was in a table cell, and the row was set
at a
fixed height.

I was able to expose the chart, oddly enough, by enabling Picture
Placeholders. The then allowed me to see a gray area where the chart
was. I
could then double-click it to edit it, etc. Also, by changing its
position
from In line with text to one of the other options (Square, Tight, In
Front
of Text--with Picture Placeholders now turned off), the chart suddenly
shows
up.

Suzanne was also able to get the chart to show up by setting the row
height
to auto, and the paragraph spacing to single.

And... without doing anything, you can expose the chart's outline by
doing a
Find, and putting ^g into the Find What: box.

Indeed it did not. I thought it might be one of those weird XML ones
like
the "Ladybird" file, but this was a different case. I'll send it right
along.

Wow. Hard to imagine why it didn't display in any view. Did it *not*
display
for you, as well? If that's the case, could you email it to me so I
can
play
with it? (I love a good mystery)

I looked at Bridget's document, and it turned out to have an { EMBED
MSGraph.Chart.8 \s } field. Although I still don't understand why
the
chart
doesn't display in any view, when this field is removed, the chart
does
not
print.

Not finding any options that include printing watermarks.
however,
this
chart appears in fron tof the text not behind like a watermark
would.
Thanks
for all the suggestions. Let me know if you have any more.
THanks so
much!

Does your printer driver offer the option of printing a
watermark?
It's
a
very long shot but remotely possible that it's originating
there.
The
other
issue we've seen with such graphics is that they are somehow
embedded
in
XML
(one we saw before was a ladybird). They are not visible in any
view,
including Print Preview.

You can send a *small* sample (I'm on dial-up), and I'll be
happy to
look at
it, but if the graphic *is* coming from your printer driver,
then of
course
there will be nothing for me to see, and I've forgotten how I
managed

I do not see it on Print Preview. I see it no where but when
it
prints
out.
I clicked on View, then Header and Footer- still nothing.
Would
you
like
me
to send it to you? Would that help?

You haven't confirmed whether or not you are seeing it in
Print
Preview.
If
you do, you should be able to delete it there according to
Herb's
instructions. Could it perhaps be anchored to the Header or
Footer?

I have tried your new suggestions. None of these work
either.
I
reprinted
the resume document again. THe random chart is still
appears.
I
selected
the whole page. All i see is the text that prints. I
checked
the
options
you mentioned- still nothing. Are you stumped?

"Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote:

I wonder if it's actually formatted as hidden. Choose
Tools -
Options -
View. Under Formatting Marks, is Hidden checked? If not,
click
to
check
it.
Does the graphic show up now?

If not... choose File - Print Preview. Does the graphic
show
up
now?
If
so,
click the Magnifier tool on the toolbar to turn the
pointer
back
into a
text
cursor. Then click on the graphic and tap the delete
key.

If you still haven't managed to make it visible... is
this a
multipage
document? If not, display the Drawing toolbar and click
the
Select
Objects
tool (near the left end). Use the pointer to draw a box
around
the
page
in
which the chart appears. In theory, this will select the
chart.
Can
you
see
it now?

None of these solutions worked. I know that i
accidentally
inserted
it by
clicking on the Insert drop down menu, then picture,
then
chart.
Then, it
just dissapears. I dont want it o be there anyway.
It
prints
out
on
top
of
a resume. I thought it might help for you to know how
i
put
the
chart
there.
Thanks for any input!

Tools - Options - View, make sure that Drawings is
checked,
and
Picture
Placeholders is not checked. Click OK. Does the chart
show
up
now? If
not,
choose View - Print Layout. Can you see it now? Once
you
can
see
it,
click
on it, then tap the Delete key.
