Thanks, Staffan. It seems the cursor-over-the-line method isn't in Visio
2003 either. Your line tool suggestion works fine, though! Just one
question: is there any way to align the vertices or adjust the line so I can
make nice horizontal or vertical lines instead of the kind that have a little
kink in the middle?

Thanks,
Jeff

I don't think the method discussed here applies to Visio 2002 so no wonder it
doesn't work. Try this instead:
Select the rectangle with the Line Tool activated. Then you will see the
shape vertices in the corners that you can move.

Hi Paul,

I am running Visio 2002 10.0.525, and i followed your instructions very
carefully, yet i have yet to get the additional handles to present themselves
either. i let the mouse hover over the lines of the rectangle and over the
rectangle itself, neither of which seems to work.

can you provide some other insight?

thank you!

Well, it crashed my web browser the first times I tried it (IE and
Mozilla). After a reboot it worked.
Hmmm, it appears you are doing nothing wrong.

Sorry it crashed your browsers... and hope it isn't something I've
done. Its a sort of standard Quicktime format... sorensen3
compression on a quicktime *.mov.

As you see, no extra handles appear. What do you suppose is the
reason. Do you know if the trial version has limitations that might
cause this?
