Are you sure you want copy/paste? This loses all associativity between the Part Studios. Are you sure you don't want derived:

If you are just trying things out with a design, may I suggest branching? It will allow you to branch into a number of different design iterations and then merge back the one you like without leaving your document.

Also Jake, As it happens no associativity is what I need as I am only trying different things out, However now I know it is the derived feature I need to keep associativity. Once again thanks for your help Brian
