Just a suggestion, though I must admit, I haven't tried the following.

If you lock all the layers that you don't want to change, then make sure the
layer you want to apply changes to is selected/active, perhaps those changes
would only be applied to the layer that is NOT locked.

I think I'll try this when I get to work today. I don't have a need to do
this right now on any project I'm currently working on, however, I still
would like to know if this method works in case I need to do this myself one
day.

Good luck!
