Hi Wayne,
Thank you - I was also looking for a solution and solved it right before I
got your email. I solved it in a different way. I noticed that for some
reason, my macro drew overlays on multiple images, instead of just the one
I selected. So I thought that closing all other images would solve it and
it did. I'm not sure why when I selected one image to draw overlays on, it
drew them on more than one image.
I don't have a problem with it, though, because I closed the other images.
Thanks,
Avital
