You can only move project root folders from one component to another.
In particular, if you right click on a project root folder in Eclipse,
you'll see a "Move in Repository" operation ... you'd use that.

So if you just want to move a few files ... create a new project root
folder ... move all the files into it, move that project root folder to
the new component, and then move the files wherever you want them in
that new component.

Note that the "history" of the files will be connected, but change sets
from one component cannot be applied to a different component, so the
only way to get subsequent changes to the new component would be via
patches.

Cheers,

I have several files which have versions and associated history (if
this were ClearCase we would call them elements)

We would like to move these items out of their current component into
new component in a new project how can this be accomplished?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions
