Mmmmm I love mysteries like this. ;-)

Ideas/questions off the top of my head:

– Make sure you’re working in Normal mode (not Preview) with Hidden Character showing and Frame Edges showing. If Frame Edges are showing, then you can see any tell-tale badges on the frames that may give you your answer. Like, maybe the text frame is locked? Has it been exported to InCopy (show an InCopy workflow icon upper left)?

– Is the text on a locked layer?

– Select the text “Appendix 1” and open the Story Editor … any special icons surrounding it?
