Hello,

i was wondering if someone can help me out with this. i am trying to
find a way using script to duplicate a set of record. lets say i have 5
record, i want to duplicate that set of 5 records which will be
identical to first one.

any help would be appreciate it.

Thank you

Without putting any thought into it, you could script to export the found set
to a temp file (all fields), then import it again. After which, you'd be
looking at the duplicates only.

I wonder if a so trivial question deserves an answer.
Anyhow here it is :
First place yourself in the record you want to duplicate (you want to
duplicate only the first record, isn't it ? your question is phrased an
ambiguous way, so it appears to me)
Then trigger the Script :
Enter Browse Mode
Omit record
Show omitted
Duplicate Record/Request
Duplicate Record/Request
Duplicate Record/Request
Duplicate Record/Request
Duplicate Record/Request
If you wish to duplicate the 5 records five times, then your script will
first 'Find' those 5 records, then then 'Go to Record/Request (First)', then
a 'Loop', the 5 'Duplicate...' lines then 'Go to Record/Request (Next, Exit
after last)', then 'End Loop'.
