Any way to do this?

I was hoping someone could tell me if there is a way to take a map and import into another map, like copy and paste. The reason I want to do this is because I made a awsome battle map but after it was done I'm attempting to make a rpg map now. If any of you know a way to import a small map into a bigger one with all the custom units and triggers that would be awsome.

I don´t think this would be possible with the current avaliable tools, altought you should check Zepir Map Editor.

The thing is when I use the editor it can't open my maps, says something about invalid headers

Maybe you have corrupted it. Have you ever had the problem with the 64 max files? If yes, did you fix it as I explained? Then you made something wrong with the insertion of the header.

Everyone else would not post into this thread as the problem is solved.
I just do it, because this is a very good example. I don't want to flame you, Twisted_Fate, but you were obviously too lazy to read the readme.txt file. Nearly every tool comes with such a file that explains how to get the program to work and sometimes a simple instruction on how to use it.
I think it is annoying if people post here about problems that are caused by ignorance. It takes not much time to read these readme files and it prevents you from asking such stupid questions.

SO FOR TH F*CKING LAST TIME: EVERYONE SHOULD READ README FILES

I have been using programs for a long time. I have noticed that most people put config information in a .txt file which I don't like to open because they get crewed up for me. The fact of the matter is I did not know I have to look in W3ZMapEditB8.txt for the readme, if it said Readme then I would of done that in the first place. Oh and what I ment about I forgot to insert the storm.dll is someone intelligent told me what was up and gave me that instruction.

I didn't want to flame you (I don't know how you regarded it). I just wanted to say, that it is highly recommended to read these info files. I was a bit angry, because this is a very common problem: Someone doesn't read instructions and wonders why it doesn't work. I am no special person, I also have to read these instructions to know what I have to do. But I really read them.
