I have created a new RoboHelp Project and I have an old
RoboHelp project. I need to export topics from my old RoboHelp
project into my new RoboHelp Project. The old project contains MANY
topics that I do not need in my old project. The topics that I do
need are contained in several books.
Is there a simpler way to export the topics that I need other
than conditionally-tagging the topics I don't need and then
creating a .chm file to import into my new project?
How many files do you need to import into the new project?
You can import each HTML topic source file directly into the new
project. Go to File > Import > HTML file, and choose a topic
from the old project. If you have a lot of topics to import, this
may not be the fastest way, but it doesn't involve "exporting"
topics.

You could copy the project to another location, rename it
inside RH (if necessary), and delete the multiple topics that must
go. Then adjust your TOC accordingly.
You can in fact use Ben's method and select multiple files at
the same time. Depending on whether the unwanted topics are in the
majority, this may not be the quickest method and you don't retain
your TOC as with Leon's method.
