Copying and Pasting Files from the Project Navigator
From the Project Navigator, you can copy an existing file and paste it into either the current Project or a different Project.
1. In the file selection or file open state, if the file to copy is not shown in the navigation window, do one of the following:
◦ In the Projects pane, click heading and subheadings as necessary to display the file. Using this method provides for expanding the headings and subheadings for only particular file types.
◦ In the Navigator Tasks pane, click Expand files. Using this method provides for quickly expanding headings and subheadings for all file types.
2. To copy a particular file, right-click the file in the Projects pane and select Copy Files. To copy all files of a particular type, right-click its heading and select Copy Files. The copy icon appears to the right of the selected file or heading.
3. To paste the copied files in the same Project, go to step 4. To paste the copied files in a different Project, go back to the Project selection state and open that Project. You can be in either the file selection or file open state of the destination Project. Then, go to step 4.
4. Right-click in an empty area of the Projects pane and select Paste Files.
If copying any files into the destination Project requires overwriting a singular support file, the Copy Files from Project wizard starts and displays the appropriate Overwrite pages. For more information, see Overwrite Pages.
If the files to copy are large, a window opens, displaying progress. For a System file, its status bar might reset multiple times as copies of necessary support files are made. Clicking Stop in this window cancels the copy procedure.
Once all files are copied successfully, a window opens, indicating that the paste is complete.
5. Click OK to close this window.
If a file to copy into the destination Project file has the same name as a file that already exists in the Project, a Copy of prefix is placed in the name of the copied file to ensure uniqueness.
 | From the Project Properties window, you can also copy and paste files to either the same Project or a different Project. For more information, see Copying and Pasting Files from the Project Properties Window or Copying Files from Another Project into the Project Open in the Project Properties Window. |
