Apologies. Should have read the post better! You don't want it in the violin part, if I understand correctly you actually want violin 1 and 2 combined in the flute part... So my first step should have been: copy violin 1 to the flute part. Then you can cut the violin 2 part down to only the bars that ar independent and drop the layer 2 version of that onto the new flute part (using 'Show active layer only' to avoid overwriting the layer 1).

Not quite sure I follow: Why would I want the second violin part in the first violin part?
