How to Move and Copy Nodes
You will probably encounter situations where you want to move an existing node to a different location in the schema tree. You might also be able to save time by making a copy of an existing node and then pasting it into a different location in the schema tree. This topic provides step-by-step instructions for performing these tasks.
Note
BizTalk Editor supports copying and pasting nodes only within schemas, not between schemas.
To move a node within a schema
If necessary, expand the schema tree to show both the node you are moving and the location to which you want to move it. For more information about expanding and collapsing the schema tree view, see Managing the Schema Tree View.
Click and hold the node that you want to move and drag it to another location in the tree.
Note
When you begin to drag the node up and down the schema tree, the mouse pointer changes to an Up, Down, or child arrow. This arrow indicates where the node will be placed when you release the mouse button, either before the node, after the node, or as a child of the node.
To copy a node within a schema
Right-click the node that you want to copy, and then click Copy.
Right-click the Record node or group node into which you want to insert the copied node, and then click Paste.
The copy of the copied node is placed at the end of the child nodes of the Record node or group node you selected in step 2.
Note
You may only use cut/copy/paste functionality within a single schema. In other words, you cannot copy nodes from one schema into another schema.
