Within the program, you can only copy catch and trash words from another sieve.

To copy a sieve you need to copy the files manually.

Depending on your operating system, search for "How can I backup my AuctionSieve Data" on the FAQ page here :
http://www.auctionsieve.com/support/faq/

Each sieve is made up of 4 files, eg
2.info.sieve
2.<etc>.sieve

They're all just text files. Have a look through the info.sieve files to find the one you want to copy. Then copy it to a new file, eg mine.info.sieve (it doesn't have to be a number).

You can copy the other files as well but it's not necessary - the info.sieve file is the important one.
