You can create a new Append, Browse, or Update frame with the same frame definition as an existing frame. The frame that you are copying must also be an Append, Browse, or Update frame. However, the frames can be different types. For example, you can create an Append frame and copy the frame definition from a Browse frame.

When you copy an existing frame definition, Vision uses the tables and all visual query specifications for the existing frame. This includes any escape code that you have written for the frame, as described in Using Vision Advanced Features.

You can keep this definition for the new frame or modify it with the Visual Query Editor, as described in Defining Frames with Visual Queries.

You can copy the frame's form as part of the frame definition, or you can have Vision regenerate a default form.
