Copying products from another category

I want to copy all the products from one category into another (only the price will change) can this be done without re-entering all the details?
I need to enter 32 products into 32 different categories, but the product image/description/manufacturer will be the same only the price will change

Re: Copying products from another category

If you want different prices, you will need to copy/duplicate the products instead of linking them.

In Catalog > Categories/Products, find the product you want to copy in the list and click the "c" button on the right. In the sidebar that will appear, choose the category to copy to, and select copy/duplicate.
