CopyObjects function problem

[Anonymous]

Hello, is there anybody in there?

Function, which should create new layout, a copy of available layout, in one
document, written on C#:
================
private void layout_new(String strFrom, String strTo,
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadDocument doc)
{
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadLayout objLayOut;
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadLayout objNewLayOut;

objNewLayOut = doc.Layouts.Add(strTo);
objLayOut=colLayOuts.Item(strFrom);
object[] objEntArray = new object[objLayOut.Block.Count];
int intCnt = 0;

foreach (Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadObject objEnt in
objLayOut.Block)
{
objEntArray[intCnt] = objEnt;
intCnt=intCnt+1;
}

try
{
doc.CopyObjects(objEntArray[1], objNewLayOut.Block,
ref missing);
objNewLayOut.CopyFrom((Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadPlotConfiguration)objLayOut);
}
catch (System.Exception ex)
{
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
}

}
================


Gives out a COMException (0x8021007B) "Incorrect file of objects"
at line "doc.CopyObjects(objEntArray[1], objNewLayOut.Block, ref missing);"

Prompt, please, in what there can be a problem?
Beforehand thanks!

missing);

Try this code:
[code]
private static void DuplicateLayout(String strFrom, String strTo,
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadDocument doc)
{
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadLayout objLayOut = null;
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadLayout objNewLayOut = null;

try
{
objLayOut = doc.Layouts.Item(strFrom);
objNewLayOut = doc.Layouts.Item(strTo);
}
catch (System.Exception)
{
objNewLayOut = doc.Layouts.Add(strTo);
}

if (objLayOut != null && objNewLayOut != null)
{
Object missing = Type.Missing;
try
{
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadEntity[] blks =
new Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadEntity[objLayOut.Block.Count];
for (int j=0; j < blks.Length; j++) {
blks = objLayOut.Block.Item(j);
}
doc.Database.CopyObjects(blks, objNewLayOut.Block, ref missing);
objNewLayOut.CopyFrom((Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.AcadPlotConfiguration)objLayOut);
}
catch (System.Exception ex)
{
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
}
}
}

In which dll do I find Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common?

[NathTay]

Add Reference > COM Tab > AutoCAD 200? Type Library.

Ok, I got an exclamation mark on the added AutoCad refference in Visual Studio.

Do you know how it can be that?
