    Doug,

    I think you have two options.

    1.Make the cabana the only thing in the drawing, export it to a dwg file and then bring it ino the new drawing as a symbol.

    2.Open plan with cabana and new plan (or one you're working on that needs it), tile the windows and position so you can see both areas you want to work on. Select and copy the cabana, click on the other tiled window to make that plan the active plan and then paste. When in that plan if you need to move it to be in a precise position select and use the point to point move tool.

    ... or you can use the Edit Area tools to copy data from one plan to another.
