Okay, this is terrific. The funniest thing happened when I tried this
method. Copying an intro screen from a procedure in one file to a
procedure in another file, on pasting I got a SKULL & CROSSBONES
with bright RED EYES and where the name of the object should have been
it just said "Missing." What a kick! You've got to love those
programmers, right? Whoever is monitoring this maillist from E-Prime
can pat that clown on the back for me. He made my day. No pirating of
objects is allowed, argh!<br>
<br>
With my heart full of hope, I tried copying from the Browser window of
one experiment and pasting into the Browser window of the other. And
there was much bliss & rejoicing.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

<pre wrap="">This feature is supposedly coming in E-Prime v2, whenever that is.
You can copy and paste some objects between experiments now in V1. Its just
very convoluted:
Step 1: Open windows explorer in a directory where you can see 2
experiments (*.es).
Step 2: Hold down the CTRL key to select both experiments.
Step 3: Right Click on one of them and select open.
Step 4: You should now have 2 E-Prime windows, one for each
experiment. Select an object to copy (eg: open a procedure and select a text
display)
Step 5: Drag the object down to the windows taskbar and onto the
'other' experiment. This should open maximise that experiment after a second
or so delay.
Step 6: Continue to drag the object to a procedure in the new
experiment.
Step 7: ...and there was much rejoicing.

Subject: Copy objects from one experiment to another?
I added a new procedure to a superseded version of my experiment file.
Can I copy objects from one experiment file to another to avoid
re-entering the data & complex nesting of lists?
Alternatively, is it easy to launch one .es file from another? I would
need to carry the subject number and one other attribute from the first
to the second .es file, which would also be the final .es file--in other
words, there's no need for me to return to the original .es.
Has anyone done this? I think I recall some previous discussion
regarding this solution.
Thanks for your help (once again),
