Must say I havn't other than copy the class and form files into the dir from 
outside into the appropriate part of the tree, didn't find that a problem.

Otherwise if I need to copy from another project I just Ctrl C the Graphics 
and paste onto a blank form, or Ctrl copy the entire code or Ctrl C any menu's 
and paste into the menu editor.

I've worked with gambas 3 for several years - its fabulous and Benoit has 
slowly evolved it incorporating many of my own (and many others) personal 
design requests into the IDE as he went along for which I'm eternally 
grateful.
