Hi, This is a year late more or less, but here is how to do it in MS Pub 2010:
Open source publication
Select the entire page (click on the file desktop, then ctrl + A)
On the insert tab, select Page Parts and then Add Selection to Page Parts Gallery
Close source publication
Open target publication
Create a blank page (right click on existing page in navigation pane and insert blank page)
Open Page Parts on the Insert Tab and select the source page part you created
A small box will appear next to the page asking which color scheme you want to apply.
Voila! Cloned page with formatting in place
Note: the clone will be grouped; you will need to ungroup to manipulate the page contents
Note: this will probably only work if the source and target pages are the exact same size.
Worked Like a Charm!!!!
It worked very well, and I was able to do this without closing the original publication (source publication/file and then opening the target publication - mind you I was running a dual screen setup with the original publication on one screen and the target
publication on the other screen). My pictures, text, and table all moved over perfectly the way I wanted it to. I did make sure the source and target pages were the same sizes (on the 'Page Design' tab, I made sure the 'Margins' were the same for both publications
pages).
Thanks for this GREAT tip, it will now make my job easier to add/insert pages form one publication to another publication.
Have a Great Day.
