You cannot copy individual tags, citations, or other data items
between dataset - only persons.

The two choices are 1) copy the person, merge the two copies of the
person (you can select which tags will be included in the merge), or
2) open two copies of TMG side-by-side, and use copy and paste to
transfer the contents of specific fields.
