Copy part for one schematic to another

Hey Guys,

Is it possible to copy a part from a schematic and board into a new schematic and board? I downloaded a zip file with the schematic and board for the arduino mega. I want to reuse some of the parts in a new board without redrawing them, cut and paste doesn't work. It seems like there should be a way to do it. i just can't figure it out. If anyone knows please help.

1) Copy the chip in the schematic editor, enable all layers and delete everything else except the copied chip
2) In the layout editor, enable all layers and delete everything else except the copied chip
3) Run exp-project-lbr.ulp, in your ulp folder, from the schematic editor
4) Select One library, click Collect data and select yes
5) Look where it's going to save the Library and click Create library
6) If you've done it right, it should open the Library in the device view
