IADTObject::Duplicate Method

Creates a new object that is a copy of the source object.

C++
HRESULT Duplicate([out,retval] IADTObject ** newCopy);
C#
Duplicate([out,retval] IADTObject * newCopy);
Visual Basic
Sub Duplicate(newCopy As [out,retval] IADTObject *)

Returns an ADTObject that is a duplicate of the source object.

Use the Duplicate method when you want to create a new object based on an existing object. For example, if you want to create a new job that is similar to an existing one, you would use the Duplicate method. 

The new object generally is a complete copy of the source object (including all properties and collections), with a new OID. For some classes the copy is not exact. For example, when you duplicate a job, the new copy does not get the old job's history, log messages, or status.
