Duplicate or copy / paste geometry

Question

I've looked through the ArcPad help and searched the forums but have not found an answer to this question.

Is there a way to copy / paste the geometry of a shapefile / layer in ArcPad? It would not matter if the attributes would carry over but it would be great if they did.

Thank you for any help,

Paul Lohr

Hi Craig,

Thanks for helping me with this. I'd like to select a feature, copy, then paste that feature into the same layer. Ideally the attributes would carry over but that's not mandatory.

Can you describe what you're trying to accomplish?  Do you want to select a feature and copy its geometry to a new feature?  Or, copy and paste the geometry for all features in the layer to another layer?  Please clarify and I'd be happy to help with some script code.
