Hi Hogi, thanks for the response. That appears to work. I was using the cut/paste options in the Edit menu, but it appears right clicking on the column gives additional, and different, cut/paste options.  Thanks!

No worries, we all started somewhere.

There are multiple ways to copy columns, and there may be documentation detailing which function should be used for each approach:

1. with and without the  name/header
2. with and without data
3. with and without properties, like the formula.

Is there a better way to batch copy multiple columns ？ 
Copy/Paste columns from the header menu is my favorite one - it copies the column with the name, with the properties, and when you press CTRL+A before you copy the column: even with the data (caution: copy is fast, paste can be very slow!).
It's such a helpful function, but it wasn't there from the beginning:
Copy Script For Selected Column(s) to Clipboard 

... and it got better and better over the time. 
The latest improvement: JMP19 checks if the script on the clipboard is actually a column script; otherwise, it returns an error message.

More tricks like this? Just have a look at CTRL/Alt/Shift + click/select/double click/right click .
