I'm afraid I've lost track of the original question on this thread, but it sounds like you're trying to copy multiple deeds from one project to another. 1. Start DeedMapper 2. Open the deed file you want to copy from. 3. Open the deed file you want to copy to 4. Open the Window menu. Select Cascade. You can now see the two deed files in separate windows. Arrange the two windows to your liking. 5. Click on the window of the deed file you want to copy from. Go to the Plot View. 6. Find the plots you want to copy. Click on one of them. Hold down the Ctrl key and click on any others you want to copy. 7. Open the Edit menu and select Copy. 8. Click on the window of the deed file you want to copy to. Go to the Plot View. 9. Open the Edit menu and select Paste. The pasted deeds may not end be visible to you, or they might not be in the right location. Bring them to your mouse by holding down the left mouse button for a second. You can then drag them to the desired location. I hope this helps!
