    I tried that, but for some reason this is not working. I tried the following;

    ThisDrawing.ActiveLayout.Name = "Layout2"

    It gives me an error like, name already exists.

    The docs show that you need a Layout object, not a string.

    Sub Test()
    ThisDrawing.ActiveLayout = ThisDrawing.Layouts.Item("Layout1")
    End Sub
