Author Lines disappear

Hello Group,

has anyone ever seen this problem. I was asked to work on an old database
from project I had not been on (when does that ever happen...) anyway I go
right to the database diagram to get a look at what I am dealing with. When
I open the diagram a strange behavior manifests itself: the lines that show
relationships between the tables all disappear!

I can see them for just a moment and then just one by one disappear. The
daughter tables all have a field that has a "record id" which has a PK. They
have a field which stores the PK of the related table.

Why is this does this?

Is this for SQL 2005 or a previous version? Are you connecting from a
workstation or locally?

Hello Edgardo,

Version = 2000
Connection = my workstation has Enterprise Manager connecting to the
database server

I have some more questions:

1-. If you can connect locally to the same server, do you experience the
same behavior?
2-. Did you try connecting from another workstation?
3-. What is the Service Pack Level in the server?
