Hi Prabhu,

That rings a bell in my memory too, but I can't recall exactly what I was
(or wasn't) doing.

Try using the Select method. It's something like this:

win.Select( visDeselect )

You might have to do that for all the shapes in the selection.

Come to think of it, perhaps you could try DeselectAll on the Selection
object instead of the window.

ActiveWindow.Selection.DeselectAll

Hi Roth,

i tried your coding
ActiveWindow.Selection.DeselectAll
its not working but
win.Select( visDeselect )
is working.i kept it in a for loop and made it look like DeselectAll but
can you give me the correct reason why
ActiveWindow.DeSelectAll() is not working
