Reuse UML classes from 1 diagram to another

[elluco]

I have reverse engineered a large C# solution consisting of Biz Objects.
Visual Studio for .Net has created me a .vsd file consisting of a Static
Model with packages and their classes. This is visible in the Model Explorer
pane.
For future Static Model designs of subsequent modules in seperate vsd files,
I want to be able to import the Classes from my rev-engineered vsd file into
my new designs.
Is this possible in Visio?

Separate the classes to be shared into their own Visio file and then using
Copy->Paste Special to paste them into each new diagram that you want to use
them in and select the Paste Link when pasting. This allows you to add an
artifact and yet keep the link to the old file so that you are using a common
model.

Hope this helps.
