Give it a name at the top and click the Floppy icon to save it as a preset.

Now you can use it for evermore!

UUUUUUUhhhhhhhhhh , you mean "Save as" ????

No - at the top of the Video Event FX where you create the title - where it says "Preset".

Enter a name and click the Floppy icon, and in future it will be available as one of the drop-down list of presets.

That'll work so long as it's all generated media, otherwise you'll also need to save the assets used to create it.
There's no downside to rendering something out though.

Rendering in uncompressed -avi takes an hour even for this short project - that could be considered a "downside" ? If I had been a little smarter I would have created this in the project I want to use it in now but thare are threee similar projects in use and I got on the wrong one and so want to move the intro to the correct project without having to render it first.
Thanks so far to all, Garo

BTW, I have three tracks for this .veg - which might complicate things a bit?

I'm still not clear as to exactly what makes up your title sequence, but to avoid rendering you can open a new instance of Vegas, then use the Selection Edit Tool to highlight all the events that make up the sequence, Ctrl C, then paste them into the other project with Ctrl V.

It will help if you have three tracks already open in the new project, but Vegas will create these if necessary.

An hour to render? I would say that the downside of this whole thing would be NOT rendering it first. Whenever you copy this title into other .veg files this way you will be adding an hour's worth of rendering time to that project. Render it as a DV file once and it will be done. After that, drop that DV file into your new projects and you've at most added a couple of seconds rendering time. You won't be wasting that hour over and over and over again for each new project by going through this "render it first" method.

You most certainly have a valid point there but I wanted this title intro in the one project only and the suggestions I got worked great
