Export XML - (Find and replace) - Import again

[lucamoscato]

Hi all,
in my project I have similar sessions that differs only for the topic, to be more specific I have a complete test suite for a section called pictures and I would like to make the same test suite for a section videos.

My idea was
- export the test suite pictures
- open with a text editor, find the word picture and change with video
- import the xml to have the new section basically done

the issue is that there is a conflict in externals ID, the error shown is this one:
Test Case : videos_02_5 : Can not be imported - You are hitting an existent Test Case with SAME EXTERNAL ID:.../../.../.../PROD_13.1-44695:Pictures_02_5
Is there any way to make TL ignore external/internal id and create a new test case?

This will save me a lot of work
I'm using TL 1.9.9

Thank you

Performed a quick test, if from exported xml I remove externalid tags and internalid value, the import works correctly.
