Moving or Copying Files into Projects

Copy the contents of a project, folder, or file to a different project by selecting it and dragging and dropping the selection onto the project. Use the Project menu options described below to move selections, or to include referenced or referencing objects in a move or copy.

Note: In other EA tools, use the right-click context menu or the File menu to include files in projects.

In the Repository Browser, select the project, folder, or file you want to move or copy, then click Project > Copy Project Contents (if you selected a project) or Project > Include into Project (if you selected a folder or file). This opens the Select Project dialog box.
In the Select Project dialog box, click the target project. Click New to create a new project. This opens the New Project dialog box. Type the project and click OK.
Click one of the following:
- Include All Referenced Objects if you want to include objects referenced by the selected object. For example, the COBOL copybooks included in a COBOL program file.
- Include All Referencing Objects if you want to include objects that reference the selected object.
Note: This feature is available only for verified files.
Click one of the following:
- Copy to copy the selection to the target project.
- Move From Current Project to move the selection to the target project.
- Move From All Projects to move the selection from all projects to the target project.
Click OK to apply the selected actions.
