Remove non-visible relationship

Visio Enterprise Architect
I have a relationship that I deleted from the drawing but
I think it is still in the model. When I execute Error
Check on the model, I receive an error L3002 -
<relationship name>: Child column(s) not specified. When
I right click and select Go To Source I then receive a
dialog box: This relationship is not shown because the
entities it is connected to are not placed on the
diagram.

I have tried to locate the tables (Database, View, Tables
& Views) all tables listed are on the diagram.

How can I remove this relationship?

Thanks
Jay

Jay,

To show a hidden relationship, you can right-click on one of the table shapes that it should be connected to and select "Show Related
Tables." This will ensure that all related tables appear on the diagram as well as the relationships between them. Then you can select
the relationship and delete it. (Before deleting the relationship shape, make sure that the option for "When removing an object from the
diagram" is set to "Ask user what to do" in the Database Modeling Preferences dialog (Database > Options > Modeling).
