Drawings locked

I have a mulipage document that I have been working on for weeks. As I was
trying to improve some of the settings to the program I some how locked all
the pages in this file. Other properties happened also such as a gray lined
cross through some of the plank pages. An other page has a gray frame around
it. What did I do? All the other files on the data base are fine. Help

I might be easier to go and retrieve the last version from your
backup. You do have a backup? Far better than a backup for this sort
of thing is a version control system, there are many good ones, CS-RCS
is good and easy to use as well as being free. Any time you want to
you can put the file away so it can be retrieved any time later, any
previous version cen be retrieved.

What type of Visio document is it? Is it one that adds its own menu
or toolbar?
Have you changed any of the security settings or file-paths?

I found it... Some thing that I have no idea what it does. I found "Track
markup" under the Tools. Clicked it and it all unlocked.
Thanks for getting my thought in the right direction.. Rod
