Best Way to Split a Book

[Dacia W.]

I have 30 chapters outlined in a book and realized it needs to be two books. What is the best way to duplicate a file, rearrange chapters and rename each file to reflect the content?

Make a new empty folder, exit yWriter, and copy the YW7 project file into that folder and rename it.  Then you can open that copy and delete everything that belongs to book 1.
