code *into* the new project. After that's done I have to create library
references, etc...
Is this the correct approach, or is there something more simple that I'm
missing...?

Click the Create project from existing source radio button on the first
page of the New Java Project wizard. Then navigate to the location
where the code exists on your workstation. If there are .java files in
the subdirectory hiearchy, Eclipse will attempt to figure out the source
folder structure of the project.
If you reference external libraries, you will still need to add them
yourself.

One additional hint: if your existing project uses Ant to build, you can
try the new feature in Eclipse 3.1 to create a project from an Ant build
script. I haven't tried it myself, but if it works it might make things
a little easier for you.
HTH,
