To make a copy of a report or template

1. Display the Copy Report dialog by performing one of the following actions.

   The Copy Report dialog, shown in the following image, is then displayed.

   

2. If you want to save your report using the same name, select another folder. Double-click a folder name at the right of a folder symbol to open that folder.

   If you want to save a copy to the current folder, enter a new name in the Report name text box or the Template name text box, as appropriate.

   If you want to save a copy to a different folder with a new name, select another folder. Double-click a folder name at the right of a folder symbol to open that folder. Enter a new name in the Report name text box or the Template name text box, as appropriate.

   If you want to copy a report or template other than the one that is currently displayed, select a different report from the Reports list and follow the instructions earlier in this step.

   For details about creating folders, see "Folders Menu", in Chapter 3.
