I have requested and been getting the original AutoCAD drawings files from our customers and I would like just to take their drawing, dimensions and all, and change it up with my companies header. When I open the files they come up within the the 2D model tab. From here I would like to delete the old header, and capy the rest straight into my working tab, but when I do this, I lose all of my dimensions. The 2D model copies fine but not the dimensions.
Does anyone know how to combat this?

Thanks for all the previous replies and future replies from everybody, alot of you have been very, very helpful to me.

Leave the drawing on the 2D model sheet.
Create a '2D Model View' on the main sheet.

Where would we be without sat-nav?
 
I found the 2D model button, works great.

Thank you
