Well, writing, I'm the someone who said that. When you do the copy / paste, do you get the eyelet on your layout?
Here's what I was trying to describe, in a little more detail.
- Open your layout
- Open the file with the eyelets
- Make the file with the eyelets the active window
- Use your selection tool to select the eyelet you want to use. I think, in most programs, you will see what looks like marching ants around your selection
- Use Menu Edit / Copy (or CTRL+C in Windows) to copy the selection
- Switch windows, and make your layout the active window
- Use Menu Edit / Paste (or CTRL+V in Windows) to paste eyelet you selected and copied into your layout. Note: it looks like in Paint ShopPro you need to do Edit / Paste / Paste as New Layer, or CTRL+L.
- If you want four eyelets on the page, do the Paste 3 more times. All of the eyelets will be on top of each other, on different layers. You will need to move them to where you want them to be.
All of the eyelets will still be on the sheet in your original file, but that's ok, I think. If you wanted to remove the eyelet from that sheet, you would use Edit / Cut or CTRL+X. I would not do that myself, because then odds are I'd wind up doing something dumb like saving the eyelet file without the eyelet I cut and pasted. If you do the COPY rather than the CUT, you haven't changed your original file.
HTH.
