Customizing Drawing Seed

I am currently trying to customize the drawingseed.dgnlid to suit our company standards. I have followed the procedures given in the design drawing and sheet composition tuturiol on the learn server but seem to get stuck creating a drawing from a callout. Have followed all the procedures in the tuturiol from setting up new seed files, amending the config file, and creating a new drawingseed.dgnlib using the 3dMetric Seed delivered with microstation I end up with the create drawing and sheet section grey out see below.

I am not sure were i have gone wrong?any ideas
