A duplicate file is exactly as it says, a duplicate "file". Yes, it does say copy in the title because the word copy uses less title space than duplicate. Entirely different than copying to clipboard. A item in the clipboard remains there in virtual memory only until another item is copied there, reboot, logout etc. Third party software allows for multiple clipboards which can sometimes be handy...jf
