I have created an endcard project file that I want to modify slightly for each new video. Is there a way to import a timeline from that project file into the timeline (at the end, of course) for the current project I am working on so that I can modify it?

I've tried to produce the end card and insert it into the new video, but then I can't change it.

I guess another way of asking this question is: How do I append one project onto another?

Thanks in advance for your help.

If it is just text that you wanted to change you could produce the end card without text and then just add it after you have imported it to your new file.

Of course that was a load of rubbish, I'll get back to you

Right, this just worked for me.

Open your "new" file and when you are ready move the scrubber to the very end. Then go to FILE - INSERT PROJECT.

Your PDS end card file should end up where you want it

You can add one project to another in the timeline.Select the Menu / File / Insert Project, Project File / Open

The project fits from the cursor position AMD-FX 8350 / 8GB DDR3
SSD SUV400S37240G / 2-HD WD 1TB
AMD Radeon R9 270 / AOC M2470SWD

WOW! All great solutions and they work well. Don't know why I didn't see the "Insert Project" under the File menu before.

Thanks for your help.
