Click the Project dropdown menu to select an existing project. Choose the samples you wish to add to your new project by clicking the check box next to the Sample name. Files that will be imported to the new project are shown in the right column.  You also have the option to select some of the Attributes that were associated with the samples from the original project. Once you make your selection, click the Import button. These samples will now appear in the Sample management table in the Data tab.

Note that if you are importing samples from a project that include has some data import imported as count matrix (see next section), you must import all the samples from that original project. Clicking on one box selects all other samples, as well.
