Copy record

[PN]

I have posted and seen other postings about how to copy
one record to another. I'm on Access2K and recently found
that by using the command button wizard on a form, there
is a Duplicate Record option that appears to do the job
just fine. Any reason that people don't use this option?
I'm trying to avoid some 'gotcha' when I roll out my
application. Thanks for the feedback.

PN, No reason not to use it if it does what you want. The other methods
have to do with people adding records and when they tab/move to a new record
that data is automatically copied from the previous record and/or you can
control what fields to copy to the new record using your own code. The copy
button wizard out of the box simply copies the entire record down.
