OK, this gets me 95% there.  I have the power pins for several IC's that I =
want to move to my power page.  When I follow this same thing, it simply gi=
ves me "new" parts when I follow your instructions.  Maybe thats an excepti=
on, because for the page with just  normal components, it works exactly how=
 you described.

Thanks for the help!
