However, if the I want to move a schematic component between two libraries 
that are in different DDB files then selecting Move Component... does 
not work.  It gives me an error message the source and destination 
libraries are the same without giving me a chance to specify the 
destination library.

How do I move schematic components between libraries when the libraries 
are in different DDB files?

Thanks,
Matt

You can copy and paste between libraries in different DDB's by selecting 
one or more components in the Browse Library component list, right clicking 
and selecting copy.  Then in the other library right click in the Browse 
Library component list and click paste.

(If you do not have SP6 (I think) you may find you get a list index out of 
bounds error when you paste paste the end of the existing list.  SP6 fixes 
this, not sure if SP5 does.)

With the library open, rt.-click on the component's name and select Copy. 
Right-click in the new library's component name window and select Paste. 
That should do it.
