I have been working with AutoCAD for two years and have never seen this problem before. Not even my tech support guy knows what to do. The boundary frame around certain object is not showing up anymore. For example when I insert an image, the boundary frame around the image (which allows me to select it) is gone. So I can't select the image, I can't even delete it. I have to either undo or detach from xref's. The same problem occurs when I draw a wipeout window. I'm fairly certain this is a simple option that has been unchecked or something, but I just can't find it:reallymad: . Can any one help, please?

look into the system variables IMAGEFRAME, OLEFRAME, XCLIPFRAME, DWFFRAME. They all work in the same manner

With the wipeout issue, the frame can be set to be on by typing:
WIPEOUT
F
ON
at the command line.
