Abstract
A system for copying document/objects in shared libraries via a copy command is disclosed. The COPY command provides four different options for copying and replacing documents located in shared libraries. The simple copy option allows a document to be created in a target library using an existing document in a source library. The option optionally permits a document from a source library to be copied to a folder document in the target library. The replace option provides for the replacement of the IDP and document contents of a document in a target library with the IDP and document contents of a source document. The check-out option provides for the placement of a document in a target library while locking the document in the source library to prevent changes. The check-in option provides for the return of a previously checked out document to a library.
