I am using Stickyback in DataCAD 11. I have a problem when it comes to creating new sticky back files. I cannot create any new ones I can only reuse ones that I already have on my computer. Is this a known problem or is stickyback not supposed to be used in version 11?

To the best of my knowledge, stickybacks are not used in DataCAD 11. If you click on the top menu's [Edit][Clipboard Select] you can select the things you want to copy to the clipboard (you can also use the shortcut CTRL+E).
After selecting everything you want, click on [Copy] on the left menu (make sure "Insert Pnt." is clicked before this if you want an insertion point) then choose the insertion point if you wanted one. If you didn't have insertion point clicked it will just copy your selections to the clipboard.
To put them somewhere else, click on the top menu's [Edit][Paste] to paste it (you can also use the normal Windows keyboard shortcut of CTRL+V. Make sure you look at the options on the left menu bar before actually placing your paste.
It's a whole lot more efficient than the old "stickyback" way of doing things. I think one of the best additions since DataCAD 9.
Have Fun!
