You should either copy the combi in it's entirety to tracks 1-8 or 9-16 and work around it, using the other 8 tracks or,
copy a program from a combi, keeping in mind that you may have to manually replicate settings and parameters.
This is because the program may be sharing a midi track, or using parameters, effects, arp. settings, etc., with other aspects of the combi. Just copying a program (with effects) does not necessarily copy parameters and setting needed to replicate it.

Stop there...I wouldn't suggest you go about sequencing in this fashion. What I mean is...when you are coping a Combi into a sequence...the Combi will overwrite tracks 1-8 or 9-16...depending on where you tell it to go. Don't do your drums first.
The good news is that most Combi's have a drum track or two. So you can find the drums you bring in...change the kit if you want to...and then record your drums. Also, most Combi's don't use all 8 tracks...but they will be brought in anyway. Check to see which tracks are INT and which ones are OFF. You can re-use the ones that are OFF for other stuff if you like.
then i try to record one of the on board combinations on track 2 by keying in copy from combination.
A Combi is 8 Programs. You can only have 1 Program per Track...so you can't copy a Combi to Track 2. It's either Tracks 1-8 or Tracks 9-16.
I hope this helps
