2. Click to open the Model Data Sources window.
3. Select the intended data source.
4. If you have not already checked out the data source, do so by clicking .
5. Click Copy. This will display the Copy Data Source dialog.
6. Use the text field to specify a unique name for the duplicate data source.
7. Use the radio buttons to choose whether to copy the data source only (first option), or the data source and all associated field and filter data - including aliases (second option).
8. Click OK.
