Batch copy to new PDM project ?

Batch copy to new PDM project ?

Batch copy to new PDM project ?

(OP)
In PDMWorks I have a "Job 123" project and then several sub-projects Tool 1, Tool 2, Tool 3, etc.. All of the sub projects are similar but not related or dependant in any way to each other. I simply want to copy an existing sub assembly and its part models to a new sub-project to save time rather than starting from scratch. In PDM is it possible to copy an assembly file and all of its part files to a new sub-project in one operation? and if PDM requires no duplicate file names I'll need to append their name while copying.

thanks,
Tom

I think I found how to do this, In SW Explorer RMB and Copy then use Pack and Go option. Or is there a better way?
