Hi, Jim. My favorite way of handling this is to open both the 2016 and 2017 files at the same time (be sure that Tools>Options>Behaviour>AllowMultipleInstances is turned on) then highlight the 163 items (or a reasonable subset) in the old file, <Ctrl/C> to copy them, then go to the new file, select the place where you want them to go, then <RightClick><PasteTaskAs><Sibling>

An alternative would be to export the 2016 file to XML, edit it to eliminate everything except the 163 items, and them import it to the new file. Warning: I did not test this alternative but I assume it would work.

I would like to use a MLO Template I just downloaded to manage my
planning in 2017.  I would like to transfer Tasks from my existing 2016
MLO saved data file to this new template.  How do I accomplish that
without having to re-enter all 163 items by hand?

Thanks,
