Right click on each layer except 'Foreground, then select 'Delete" for each of the layers.
If you wish you can now make a new layer.
The red comes out dark unless you right click on the 'G' and unselect 'Overprint Fill'.

Harvey,
The "Overprint Fill" was the culprit. That is what was giving me the impression that the "G" was not moving to the top layer.
I've got the logo ready to go now. Your commission check is in the mail.

Hi Dave
Sorry it took so long to get back but I had a bridal show yesterday. What exactly are you trying to do? I was able to move your pieces to different layers with no problem. The biggest problem is you said this file was from a MAC if I remember right, Well depending on the program that was used when they exported the file it probably said DO YOU WANT TO FLATTEN LAYERS when they exported the file. What this does is put everything on one layer. It also might keep all of the layer names but all graphics will be on one layer.

Bill,
The image was a small portion of the logo that was going to be engraved on name tags. The text that I included in the sample was a black outline, but the file came through with all the layers filled with black. I was simply trying to color the inside portion of the letters to white, then bring them to the front to create what I would assume is the correct outline effect.
I finaly got the logo where I wanted it without spending too much time on it. The order was completed and delivered this morning.
I really appreciate your help.
