    I joined your two posts (the forum guidelines ask you not to ask the same (or similar) questions in multiple forums).

    Anyway, there is the leSaveMarkNet function which saves the shapes to another cellView, but there's nothing to access the original database objects (it would be complicated because they are throughout the hierarchy).
