Hi,  I am working on a project which requires me to automate a work item creation process.  The new work item's attributes and values is base on old work item except one attribute.

Does anyone knows how to do a copy of work item?

Thanks,

Accepted answer

Terry,

I found this item on developerworks helpful as a starting point for writing your own tool:

Hi Bill, I just went there but somehow the page didn't have explaination and didn't show any example.  Can you advise?  thanks.

Hi Terry, the page has two code snippets on it.  The first snippet details two methods: duplicateWorkItem and copyAttrValues.  Hopefully can see this in your browser.  It's not a full, working example, but may be enough to get you started.
