Steps:
You will create new copies of a selected document and all related documents and document links.
Step 1Select the document you want to copy.
Click the Creating Simple Formulas section in the bottom work area.
Step 2In a split layout, you can either use Copy/Paste Special or drag-and-drop to create a duplicate from one Outline Editor pane to another.

Press the left mouse button on the Creating Simple Formulas section and drag it to the top work area.
Step 4Release the mouse button.
Step 5Dragging between Outline Editor tabs automatically opens the Paste Special dialog box.
Note: Dragging between the Library and the Outline Editor in a split layout does not open the Paste Special dialog box; instead, it automatically creates a link.
Step 6Paste a duplicate copy of the selected content.
Click the Duplicate (selection and related) list item.
Step 7Click the OK button.
Step 8The duplication process starts.
As indicated by the progress bar, creating a duplicate, creates new copies of all the related documents.
