"Learning Maya" help!

Hi all,

I'm following along with the "Learning Maya 2" book (PDF) with Maya 4. However, I'm now working with NURBS and the interface seems to have changed quite a bit...especially the layer bar. I'm stuck on "Creating the Top Surface" of Lesson 7 on page 136.

I'm trying to create the top surface of a NURBS box by adding two different layers and adding the base surface to one layer and selecting the top edge isoparm and then duplicating it using "Edit Curves" -> "Duplicate Surface Curves".
When I try and add this selection to the other layer I get: -

Error: Only DAG objects can be in a display layer. 'curveFromSurfaceIso1' ignored.

Yet in the book, it seems to work fine. Any ideas?

Jon.
