If you only need some blocks then chose the blocks and copy them to another program block folder. You could make every where copys, from the same depts of the folders in a TIAP-project.
	I hope that the answer will help, if you have still questions, don't hesitate to ask me. All the best, Late Never say never, think in solutions, not in trouble......
