Question Relationships window: table has been moved off screen and can't get it back

[MsT]

Hi,

One of my students has somehow moved a table off the edge of the relationships window and can't get it back.

We've tried:
> deleting the relationships, hiding the table and then showing it again - it reappears in the same place.
> repairing the database.

Has anyone seen this before? Ultimately it's not affecting the performance of the database, but he's making a project for submission and it affects the quality of his documentation. (Plus it's driving me crazy and I want to prevent reoccurance!)

We use Access 2002 SP2

Many thanks in advance

Are you sure? If you maximise the relationship window, you get horizontal and vertical scroll bars. So far as I'm aware, these are more or less infinite so you can't move a table off the scrollable area.

Hi Neil, thanks for your reply. The table has vanished from the top left of the screen, so both scroll bars are at the extreme position (top and left)

Would you like to see a screen shot?

Mmm... I can't reproduce the problem. I can't move the table far enough to be unreachable!

If all else fails you could import all your objects into a new blank database. You then have a blank relatioships pane to work with.
