Can't select objects

Hi everyone, first timer and Newbie here. Just starting out in the ACAD world... been a Visio guy for a while.
 
Just received a DWG file with a floorplan that contains Fire Alarm devices on it. It opens fine in AC but, I *can't* seem to pick any object. Hovering over or directly selecting any object, makes No change?
 
I've got the current layer selected, unfrozen, unlocked, open - thru layer manager, but just can't select anything. I can change the color of all objects within the layer but can not select a specific object or group of objects.
 
It's almost as if the file is protected from any changes. Tried various changes, even added/moved/resized my own objects without any problem, but the original objects just remain untouchable???
 
So, what simple thing am I missing here???
 
Thanks in advance, John

you could be in paper space. do you have a tab at the bottom of the screen with MODEL on it. If so press there and try again.

Dave;
 
You nailed that one over the fence.Yes, it appears that I was in fact in the wrong layout space.In my case, I have buttons along the bottom/middle which allowed me to change space and make the edits.
 
Thanks for your quick reply.
