resize shapes

[Paul W.D.]

Visio 2000: When I drag a Shape onto the sheet, let's say a package, the
anchors are defaulted to locks. I can remove these locks by disabling them in
the Protection menu. So in theory I should now be free to resize my Shape but
to no avail. I tried holding 'Ctrl' and the Help tells me I'm doing the
right thing.

You can also lock a shape by writinga GUARD() formula in he Width & Height
shapesheet cells...
You could check for that.
