    I'm guessing you're missing some resources. If any of the actionscript relies on outside .as files, or uses attachMovie at runtime to add content to the stage, you might not have copied everything you need.

    Check Publish setting on both the files. The new file should have same publish settings.
    Does your code says "Do yo want to replace items" when you drag it or copy it to new file? If it prompts you for that then you might have incompatible items in library. In that case you need to copy the item in same order they were placed in original file.

    These are the only 2 quick notes that comes in my mind right now.
    I hope that helps a bit.
