Laurie,
As was suggested in one earlier post. The most reliable way to remove
those items (in P99SE and I assume AD would be similar) has always been to
Select All, then Deselect Inside (cursoring around your items that are within
view), then delete (Shift-Delete).
In this manner it is selecting everything in the database (typically
regardless of whether it is off-screen), then deselecting anything bounded by
the cursored rectangle, then deleting everything that was not deselected
(should be the item(s) that had any objects out of the workspace).
Sincerely,

Subject: Re: [PEDA] Something off the board
I have already tried this including importing to Protel 99SE, exporting out and
back in to AD6 but to no avail (although I did lose all the net names on my
tracks in the process so wasn't keen to continue with that even if it had fixed
my problem).
Moving the board to a higher part of the screen results in the `empty' region
at the bottom increasing. Rotating it simply confirmed that `something' was out
there. I tried turning on all comments and designators but still nothing showed
up.
I eventually fixed the problem by deleting Mechanical Layer 1 (which originally
had a couple of boundary markers so that I could easily see where the analog
and digital grounds were). I haven't been able to `find' what it was on that
layer because even with everything that I had put on there (and that was only
lines) deleted, the problem still persisted. Delete the layer and it went away.
Thanks to you all for your feedback. If I ever find the culprit I will let the
group know.
Best Regards
