Hi. In PS7.

Have 2 files open with same dimensions. I have a little number on the first file I would like to copy & paste to the second. I want it in the same exact position on the second file as it appears on the first.

I thought if you dragged the layer from the first file onto the second while holding shift key would do it, but it only places the number on the center of the page.

Is there something else I should be doing for this?

Thanks!
Jules

If the two documents are the same size, use Duplicate Layer from the Layers Palette flyout and choose the other document as Destination.

I apologize. The 2 files were not the same size. They were off by not much, but not the exact same. Holding the Shift key does work while dragging.

I will use your Duplicate Layer tip sometime tho, Ed.

Thanks. Delete this if needed.
Sorry to waste space on the posts!
