VBA Command to Deselect a Shape

[MikeM]

I've written a VBA program that drops shapes (from a stencil I created) on a
page, but at the end of the exercise the last shape is selected (it has a
dotted line surrounding it). Is there a VBA command that will deselet this
shape (or select the page on which it sits?

ActiveWindow DeselectAll

FYI there's another method too, which is slightly counter-intuitive:

Window.Select( shp, Visio.visSelectArgs,visDeselect )

May come in handy some other day : )
