The objects are copied fine but the text stored in the SOPTemplate objects isn't copied with them. The SOPClass was created in a Space not named Main. I created a new class in the Main Space assuming that I messed up the default parent or default space assignment. However the new class created in Main still does not propagate data saved in the template object when I create a new document. I'm completely befuddled.
