This may be a stupid question Embarrassed, but what is the easiest way to copy items from one FPX file to another?

A number of the parts I need are in the common library and I would like to just copy/import the relevant ones into my new FPX.

Thanks! Dave.

Select the Gray Button to the left of the Footprint Name to highlight the entire row.
 
Click and drag down the Gray Buttons or CTRL Click the Gray Buttons or Click and Shift Click to select Rows in-between.
 
After you select all your Rows, Right Mouse Button + Copy.
 
Then open your main FPX file and select any cell and Right Mouse Button + Paste.
 
The rows will be added to the end of your main FPX.
