Copying sources/repositories to new database

In KKPro 2.02, is there a way of copying the set of sources and repositories from an existing database to a new one?

There is, although it is a little round-about.

Open the database which contains the source docs and repositories you want to copy.

Use "File | Database | Copy" to create a new database containing all of the old data.

Use "File | Database | Open" to open the new database.

Use "Edit | Select All" and then "Edit | Delete families" with both "Delete parents as well" and "Delete children as well" set.

If the database is large, the program may appear to freeze when deleting the people and families - just leave it to complete the operation. You will be left with just the source docs and repositories.

Thanks for that, Nick. I should have asked the question before I started to populate the new database!
