| When I select a section of a drawing and I copy it, then try to paste it into a different drawing that has the same need for this selection. When I paste it, I lose some of the blocks that are in this selection. I am not sure if it has something to do with duplicate blocks, but any help will be greatly appreciated!! |

Are all the layers turned on in the new DWG? Are the items which are not being copied on a locked layer in the source DWG? ------------- -- R. Williams AutoCAD 2010 Certified Professional <!-- If all else fails hit F1 --> <<AutoCAD 2009 |

Yes? No? Maybe?  ------------- -- R. Williams AutoCAD 2010 Certified Professional <!-- If all else fails hit F1 --> <<AutoCAD 2009 |

I actually figured it out the other day. It was due to the blocks not being properly defined in the drawing that I was pasting them to.
Thank you for the help.
