I would like to have the ability to copy crew section(s) from one profile to another.

Right now if I want to copy the art crew from one profile to another I can't. I can only copy the entire crew.

Also it would be helpful to have that ability within a TV Series profile to copy a crew section that stays the same to the other episodes.

Unless I am missing something.

Hmm.. have you tried: After "copy all crew" paste it into a text editor (like notepad or something) then remove the ones you don't want. Select whats left, Copy it, go to your new profile and do paste all crew.

Ps: I have no idea if this works, never done it, but I know the copy and paste function works right across windows.

It will work.

But you'd have to past the copied crew to the new episode first, before entering any other data. Otherwise the already entered Crew will be deleted.

I found it easier to copy and paste the data of the previous episode and simply make the required changes (Usually only Director / Writer / DoP / Editor).
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Edit the XML of the copied crew, it's quite easy once you know the pattern.
See this article as a starting point.
