EBUScore - “Duplicating” events
Is there a way to create an event in EBUScore and then create an identical one, except for its name?
In particular, I want to create a multiple (not Swiss) teams event which people can then just copy in some way for future use ... in the same way that you can duplicate a tournament in BBO.
Thanks

Yes. You can import an event using the Import/Export Event button in the main menu of EBUScore. You navigate to where you want to import the event from, and if you select the dat file you are currently using you will import the event from that dat file to the same dat file - ie you will duplicate it.
A useful way of setting up an event for use by lots of people is to create it in its own dat file and then provide the dat file for others to use. We do this for EBU events that are complicated but have the same format year after year, like the National Pairs final, so that all we need to do is change the date and import the players' names.
Thanks, Gordon. I thought there must be a way to do it.
