Easy way to copy a Dictionary<string, object> ?

[Joanna Carter \(TeamB\)]

I would like to copy the contents of a Dictionary<string, object> to another
Dictionary<string, object>. Do I have to iterate the source use something
like foreach or is there an easier way ?

Have you tried the constructor overload which takes another dictionary
of the same type? I don't have the beta installed yet, but from the
docs it looks like it should work.

Excellent Jon, I'll try that tomorrow. It's amazing just how big a help file
can seem when you are looking for something )
