Thanks - I saw the bit about hierarchical schematics but missed the
bit about being able to use them multiple times. What about refdes
incrementing and assignment? Right now I've got my filter laid out so
that there are 6 channels, each using 2 channels of a quad opamp.  I
guess it's probably better to either draw it as 3x dual channel
filters, or else swtich to dual opamps. I'm not really space
constrained, might be easier to lay out anyway.
