Write out every layer in a drawing into a seperate drawing....

Here is a good one.

Would it be simple enough to create a seperate drawing from each individual
layer in a drawing without alot of code. Im fairly new to this and was just
thinkin selections sets would be the best way to go instead of freezing
everything, turn on one layer, copy all its contents out (wblock) and go to
the next layer. Ideas and code welcomed

If you don't find one, let me know. I think I have something that could be
easily modified to do what you're asking.

Create a filtered selection for each layer in the drawing, then WBlock it
out.
