LeoCad can do that sort of thing - but not very straightforward, here is the
procedure:

- Rename your sub-model as .dat (LeoCad doesn't properly support .dat extension)
- Open it with Leocad
- Select all parts (edit/select all) and Copy (Ctrl-C)
- Hit the New button
- Add any brick (or Leocad would freeze at next step)
- Paste (Ctrl-V)
- Delete the added brick
- save your design as .dat
All your steps will have been removed...
But probably a search and replace of all "0 STEP" by "" with a text editor
would be faster ;o)

There is a simple way to make the submodels work properly.  After I complete
the sub-model file with the steps I can make a duplicate copy of them and
take all the steps out and then use THIS file (no steps) with the
complete.ldr file to create the pov file of the final model.  This works but
again you have to manually remove the STEPS.  Can MLCAD or some other
applciation take out ALL the steps from a .ldr file?  This would be a quick
fix to the problem.
