I started a project under the wrong library.
Is it possible to move a project from one library to another? I don't have a problem with moving all the files, but I'd rather no redo an entire project. I was hoping there was a shortcut for fixing this problem.
Thank you.

You can drag the project from one library to the other, but I think that the recommended procedure is this:
1) make a new event in the original library, and move or copy the project to this new event
2) copy this event to the desired library

I forgot to add: you don't have to move the media manually.
When you drag an event from one library to another, you get a dialog like this:
The options to choose depend on how your media is organized. If the media is external, you don't need to copy anything.
If the media is inside the library, choose to copy the media. If the two libraries are on the same drive, this does not actually duplicate the media (FCP will use hard links instead).
Luis, you've done it again. I really appreciate you. Really.
Thanks.
Yep, that's what I got. Your explanation of it helps more though. Thanks again buddy. ;)
