Hi @ndillner343SKL.  I do not believe it will work that way.  Generally, we do not just copy styles from a template drawing file into our other drawings, we copy things like TitleBlockDefinition, BorderDefinition, SketchedSymbolDefinition, and SheetFormat type objects from a template to other drawings.  If we want styles in our other drawings, we make sure they have been saved up into the 'global' styles library first.  Then we can open our other drawings, and use the 'UpdateFromGlobal' method on any styles that are already present in the drawing, and currently being used, then we can create copies of the library styles down into the local drawing, if we want to use them in that drawing.  If your template drawing contains some styles that you want to use in your other drawings, and they have not yet been saved up into the global styles library, then you should open that template drawing and save its styles into the global library, so that they will be available to your other drawings.  There are methods for creating a local copy of a library style, and methods for copying an existing local style, to create another, but not a method for copying a style from one drawing to another directly.
