Copying an Object 

Use

You can copy an object in order to reuse the original object, or part of the original object, in a new context, for example.

Prerequisites

You can call the copy function as follows:

·        Choose <Object> à Copy Object () from the object menu of the open object.

·        Position the cursor on the object to be copied in the navigation area and choose Copy Object () from the context menu.

Features

This function enables you to create a copy of the outbound object for another object key.

In the Copy Object dialog, you specify the key attributes for the object copy under Target Object. To do this, call the input help ().

The name of the original object is set as the default for the object copy. You can change the name of the copy object in the Copy Object dialog.
