    I've got lines that are stacked on top of each other. an idiot coworker of mine managed to copy a building floor plan on top of itself about 8 time, and i'm looking for a way to clean up the 7 extra layers of lines. thanks.

    Overkill - accessed via EXPRESS>MODIFY>Delete duplicate objects. I did a
    test and copied a couple of plans 8 times, it took about 12 seconds or so to
    find over 14,000 objects and then delete 12,500 of them, so it depends upon
    how complex the plans are as to how long it may take, but it still likely to
    be a considerable time less than doing it manually.
