    Hey Mis3,

    The way i do this is to "save as" 'project A', calling it 'project A new'.

    I then "save as" 'project A' again, but this time i save as the original filename as 'project A' (so i'm essentialluly renaming/overwriting 'project A' again.)

    I then import project, and import the 'project A new' file.

    The 'project A new' appears in my project list and i then rename the project to 'project A new'.

    Thats it. I then have 2 duplicate projects in my navigator frame. One entitled 'project A' and one entitled 'project A new'

    Cheers,

    Rich

If  project A new is the proJect name, why rename it?

 

Also, do I perform all these steps in SOAPUI interface?  (Not in SOAPUI-Projects folder in my laptop)?
