Post From: Duplicate Chart to Chartbook

I wish to copy charts from one chartbook to another.
I created a new chartbook to receive these charts, it named itself chartbook1.
Then I selected a chart from a different chartbook, went to Chart>Duplicate Chart to Chartbook, but the window that opens only gives me 2 options
Which are;
Switch to this chartbook: Yes/No or;
Create new chartbook: Yes/No
I’ve tried both, the 1st just makes a copy in its original destination and the second creates a new chartbook called chartbook2 and of course the next chart I wish to move into chartbook2 will only be able to go into chartbook3 etc. I’ve tried double clicking, but it wont let me type in a name and it doesn’t list any existing chartbooks. I also tried right selecting, this brings up a new window that just says, Copy Name and Value. I took this as an instruction to copy the desired chartbook name and paste it in one of these boxes, but that cant be right because I cant select them to paste anything in and I have no idea where to copy the chartbook name from.
It’s a bit of a conundrum……..any ideas…….apart from shouting at the screen of course, ‘cos it doesn’t work, I tried.

To illustrate please see the attached snip, Here you can see that I have 3 chartbooks open.
I wish to duplicate the footprint chart you see from Chartbook2 to ESMKProfileVWAP10days, both of which are open.
When I press Chart>Duplicate Chart to Chartbook, this is the window that opens and as you can see, it does not contain a list of open chartbooks.
And apart from changing No to Yes on one or both of these boxes I cannot input anything else in any other field.

If anyone can give me an insight as to what I am doing wrong please help.
