I have built a custom function in Crystal Enterprise and now wish to create another one which is almost identical, but differs in only a few places.
 
I would like to avoid having to create the second function from scratch. Is there any way to 'copy' the existing function using a new name and modify it? This would be a big timesaver.

Well, there's always the terribly obvious method, which is what I use.  Select all the text in the old function.  Copy it.  Open a new function.  Paste the text.  Modify as needed.

But, AFAIK, there is not a way to actually do copy/paste on the function itself.
