Anyone know how to remove the cross-functional properties in a Visio 2002 flowchart?

Here's the scoop.. created a visio flowchart, and somewhere in the midst of playing around, i added a cross-functional band, but then I deleted it.  Now, everytime I open the flowchart, I get this cross-functional dialog box asking if I want to have horizontal or vertical bands.

Other than creating a brand new flowchart, anyone know how to get the document to stop popping up the dialog box?

The properties for the flowchart show a cross functional band, functional Band.9, vertical holder.. yet none of these things exist on the flowchart.

It's like there is a master page with all the stuff on it that I can't see.

Any ideas?????

I found the master stencil, and removed the cross-functional element.. no help, the stupid dialog still pops up.  

Let's see here's what else I tried:

I removed all the diagram elements off of each page - nada.
I removed all but the first page - nada.

It's like there is no way to get rid of the cross-functional "stamp" unless you copy all your diagrams to a new file and new pages.

That was the only thing that worked.  

Saw two similar entries in microsoft for Visio 2002, no solution posted with them either.

Nothing in google, either.  sheesh.
