Is it possible to copy only certain pages from one .eap program to another one? I 've tried copying a page and selecting all the elements on a page, but when I open the destination project, the clipboard is empty. It'll be a ton of work to redraw a tank/valve/pump/pipe diagram. There must be a way...

Select all object on the screen and rightclick with the mouse, then select "Object -> Library... ". A window then opens up, give the "object " a name and set the tag settings. Then, in the other project, under the objects window, select the "Library " tab and drag and drop the "object " you created.
This is how I been "copying and pasting " between projects.

You can also use the project data import and select specific screens.
1) Have your destination project open
2) Menu>File>Import>ProjectData
3) Select the source project file
4) Select only the screens that you want

OpZed is correct, Import Project Data is your best option.
