Somehow I copied something and now when I open my drawing I have deplicate pipe networks with one being named something like Pipe Network and the 2nd being named Pipe Network(1). Pipe Network(1) does not show up in the toolspace. It has duplcated every pipe network in the drawing. I deleted all the pipe but when I close and reopen the drawing it comes right back. I've attched a pic. The single line is the original, the double line is network(1). Can someone please help me.
Not sure where to go next. When we hit this problem we were near the end of a project, so ended up just exploding everything. Some lessons learned:
Don't copy any structure or pipe, it will copy the whole network
Same applies for COPYTOLAYER command.
Don't freeze any of the layers used in the pipe networks as object layers or style layers.
We haven't seen this for a while, so I hope we're avoiding whatever the trigger was. (Also, we were getting it in 2008. Haven't seen it in 2011.) But sorry, I don't have any real suggestions for what to do next for you.
