Leslie,
Thank you very much for that trick : as Lauritz I had an object in my Object
DB which I couldn't locate either by Selection Name nor by any other
attribute (nor was it found by ovtopodump) and which resisted to any options
of ovtopofix.
I forced the addition of a new one and then deleted the added symbol. My
topo and object DB are consistents since.
Thanks again.
