I am experimenting with new ideas in the bidding system with my partner, so I decided to create a new FD file in which only one bidding sequence, 1♣-1NT would be included. I opened our system file, went to 1♣-1NT, and clicked on 'Copy'. Now I started a new empty CC file and went from 1♣ to 1NT, then clicked 'Paste'. I thought I was done but FD quit with an error message.
Am I doing something wrong?

Not a feature at the moment, you'll have to use a text editor.

A different approach will accomplish what you seem to be trying to do.
Open the original FD file containing the 1♣ sequences (and a lot of other uninteresting stuff). "Save as" a new file (it seems one needs to type in the .bss extension - it has fooled me more than once).
Now, in editor mode, select in turn the uninteresting options and delete them. When done with that, save. Now you have a base consisting only of the 1♣ sequences.

Thanks, I knew this method but I thought it was easier to copy one sequence than to delete about 30 one by one.
