I have two message flows which I like to merge it into one. For example
Flow 1 - Request flow
MQINPUT (Q1)-- node1--node2--node2---MQOUTPUT (Q2)
Flow 2 - Reply fow
MQINPUT (Q3)-- node3--node4--node5---MQOUTPUT (Q1)

merge into a single flow
MQINPUT (Q1)-- node1--node2--node2---MQOUTPUT (Q2)---MQGET(Q3 WAIT FOR REPLY)-- node3--node4--node5---MQOUTPUT (Q1)

I am looking for a way to copy flow 2 into flow 1 on my toolkit and just change the MQINPUT to MQGET. But I cannot find a way to do that ?
Any idea ?
I know rebuilding flow 2 as a subflow is an option. I want to see if there is any other way.

Delete the MQInput node in the second flow.

Add the second flow to the first as a subflow.

Thanks Jefflowrey for the quick response.
I am already aware of this option as I said in my post

Not really.

Copy&Paste of nodes only sort of works, and then usually only within a flow.

You could play around with the flows as XML files, rather than as flows... but that's dicey and you'd not want to do it if you don't know what you're doing.
