Can't find my main document

Would you like to try the download at
http://www.visio-utilities.sandrila.co.uk/
and see if you can get to your document pages using the new
Go Page menu.

Again, I KNOW my regular Window is there, somewhere. my file size shows 5.5

document that I'm trying to work with.

Hello Deanna,

What does your Window menu show? Click on the Window menu item and it
should show a list of the open windows. As long as you've got more than one
item click Cascade to arrange them across the screen from where you 'should'
be able to close the offending group shape window.

Let us know if this works.

Thanks guys. . .I can't find anything at all that will let me close out
this
page/window. I've tried every option to delete, exit, close, clear, you
name
it. It will only close out the whole program, or delete the shape, but I
just don't see anything to close out this group window thingy. . . I got a
response from another post that said to click on the red X which is the
last
item on the edit menu. . . but I don't have a red x.

Do you have any other suggestions on how to close out this window?

Thanks for helping me out.

Ah, that's a good clue. But I think you are using the built-in Edit -
Goto Page menu
Try the SuperUtils - List/Goto Page menu

Even better, use the SuperUtils - Reports - Page Report menu
I think you might have some invisible pages.

I guess it was an invisible page (?). Because I actually didn't do anything
but install that thing and open up my program.

If I just install it and then open up my document it was just the same
problem. I had to install it then open that up and then go to file, open to
open up my document. Not sure if that made sense. . . Anyway. thanks again.

I've followed all the instructions, as per this thread, but it hasn't worked
for me. This problems came about when I last clicked on save, closed it and
then there was the group window and I clicked yes to the save message box,
and next time I opened it, the group window only appeared and I can't get
back to the main document, just as DJ has described.
Any other advice on how to resolve this?

in a
data
center). When I open it up, all I get is one page with a shape that
I
was
trying to create. . . I know the rest of my document is still here
because
when I go to File, Properties, Contents tab - it shows all of my
pages
and
objects. And also, when I save as a web page, my original document
is
shown.
There are no page tabs at the bottom like usual. No CLOSE button
to
close
out whatever this "page" is called. On the title bar is says
"datacenter.vsd:Server.30 GROUP - Microsoft Visio" The
"Server.30GROUP"
part should not be there.

Thank you!!!

I've found a way around this! Right hand click on the file and open with
Internet Explorer and then save as a visio 2002 drawing (or what ever version
you are using). It should open normally, with all pages / tabs visable.

I've followed all the instructions, as per this thread, but it hasn't worked
for me. This problems came about when I last clicked on save, closed it and
then there was the group window and I clicked yes to the save message box,
and next time I opened it, the group window only appeared and I can't get
back to the main document, just as DJ has described.
Any other advice on how to resolve this?

I guess it was an invisible page (?). Because I actually didn't do anything

If I just install it and then open up my document it was just the same
problem. I had to install it then open that up and then go to file, open to
open up my document. Not sure if that made sense. . . Anyway. thanks again.

Ah, that's a good clue. But I think you are using the built-in Edit -
Goto Page menu
Try the SuperUtils - List/Goto Page menu

Even better, use the SuperUtils - Reports - Page Report menu
I think you might have some invisible pages.

Hello Deanna,

What does your Window menu show? Click on the Window menu item and it
should show a list of the open windows. As long as you've got more than one
item click Cascade to arrange them across the screen from where you 'should'
be able to close the offending group shape window.

Let us know if this works.

Best regards

news Thanks guys. . .I can't find anything at all that will let me close out
this
page/window. I've tried every option to delete, exit, close, clear, you
name
it. It will only close out the whole program, or delete the shape, but I
just don't see anything to close out this group window thingy. . . I got a
response from another post that said to click on the red X which is the
last
item on the edit menu. . . but I don't have a red x.

Do you have any other suggestions on how to close out this window?

Thanks for helping me out.

Hi Ash,

Another way might help.

First, go to File Properties and uncheck the "Workspace" box at the
bottom of the dialog.

Then save your document, as normal.

When you re-open it, you should have the main window. Please let me know
if this doesn't work!

Hi Chris,
I carn't find the "Workspace" box. I have the following tabs when I right
hand click on the file and select properties: General, Security, Custom,
Summary & NetWare Version. There are a few advances, but I havn't seen it, in
these either.
