I didn't answer this because I didn't have any good solutions, and probably

shouldn't now... but just so you know you're not alone.


This has happened to me twice - once i knew after I hit trace bitmap it was

a mistake and stopped it before it was done and corrupted it. That time the

bitmap happened to be inside a symbol i hadn't placed yet and "select

unused" and deleting them as a group got rid of it (which suggests to me

your dummy idea might work) (although I've been having trouble selecting

unused item since I upgraded to 4.01a - for some reason it just doesn't seem

to select most of them, and I have to do it over and over, save as and

close, and open again and the like). The other time I had to go back to my

last saved version :(


Sorry that's not more help,

Laura
