Can not select/delete a line??

[Jlock126]

For some reason there is a line that is way off to the bottom of my drawing (outside of my drawing border) that I can neither select or delete. I have isolated it to layer 0, purged, audited, and regened the drawing...it will not go away. I can't figure out how to get rid of it. The layer is not locked. Hmmmm....

 

I put everthing in the original dwg into a new dwg and the trash line is gone. But this has happened to me once before. It only happens with existing drawings, nothing new.

 

Thanks

Attach the file here.

Wish I could but it's a work file sharing thing...so I can't.

You mean you can't delete everything in that file except the line and post the file? Your company needs to become enlightened to the online world. Much training/learning takes place for free on forums like this, but if you are restricted from participating..... ...well give them a cost estimate to have a consultant come in and do on-site training.

Try select all command, holding shift unselect everything you want to keep and with any luck the line you want to get rid of will still be selected then simply hit delete.
