Copy and paste Hit/Basic from one Auto Feature to another

I would like to be able to Copy and paste hit basics from one auto feature to another auto feature.  I was measuring a circle that has nine 20degree segments that needed measured.  When I used Void detection and had the angle from 0-360, it didn't work.  It would put some points on the surfaces but would skip most of the surfaces.  So I tried to copy and paste hit basics from the segments into a feature and it would not work.  I get an error "Highlighted object(s) may not be copied!"  And if you try to paste from Notepad you get a "Line too long error."
