Is it possible to delete the format from a drawing.... Not just turn off the display. I want to delete it completely.
I know it's weird but that what is needed.

Thanks

A drawing has to have a format. You can make a completely empty format and switch to this one.

Tracy,

Do a "sheet setup", select the format that is listed and it will give you an arrow for a drop down menu. In the drop down menu, select the size that the drawing currently is (unless you want to change the size) and it will remove the format.

Let me clarify - not needing to replace the format or change the size.. I need a file that does not have a format file at all.
It's ok if it shows the sheet size border.
Basically, like when you're starting a new drawing...
You pick your paper size and you have the options for "Use Template" "Empty with format" and "Empty".
I have this drawing that has a format and need to change it to "empty"
If that's possible.

Should be able to change it to a custom size and "Remove All" for "All format tables".

Thanks Everyone - I got it now.. re-selecting a size changes it to empty. I didn't catch that in some of the early replies.

Thank you again all - everyone have a good evening.
