Here is what I am doing, I am creating different drawing formats. I need to have multiple sizes of a "J" format for a particular project we are working on. I have created the basic formats for all the sizes I need. However as things go we had to make changes with the titleblock and BOM and add standard notes and flag notes. What I have done on the first format is create layers for our flag notes so that I can control the visibility of the notes, sometimes notes will need to be turned off. I have got the format working with all the custom properties I have added. Now I am trying to copy the notes and titleblock to the other formats using "CTRL+C". This copies the entities over just fine, but it does not copy my layers from the original format. Is there a way within SolidWorks to copy layers from one drawing format/template to another? I really don't want to spend all the time recreating these layers if I do not have too.

Thanks for the help,

Keith
