Drawing Views across sheets

I am fairly certain that I am doing something wrong. But I seem unable to move views from sheet 1 to sheet 2 or 3 etc.

My particular problem is not being able to have a drawing on one sheet and the hole table on another.

Can someone help.

To move drawing views, drag them in the feature tree to the sheet you want. Hold control down to copy them.

To move the hole table to another sheet, click the top of the hole table (header) which selects the table, and then control x to cu and control v to paste onto the new sheet.

I thought this was how it was supposed to work but when I am on sheet 1 sheet 2 is greyed out in the feature tree and visa versa.

I know there is a problem with the sheet format but I dnt think this is causing it.
 
A trick to do is to insert the View and create your Hole Table on the 2nd sheet, then Hide the View you don't need.

I know that this is old but here is an option that you can use. Insert drawing view and create the hole table on sheet 2. Drag the drawing view to sheet 1. This will leave the hole table on sheet 2. Now insert a view on sheet 2 and hide it. This hidden view fills in the title block info.
 
You can also select the top header of the table, control x(cut), goto other sheet and control v(paste).
