How to copy complete data from Parent work item to its child work items in RTC
I have requirement to create customized work item of Change Request in which i need to set multiple centers(Locations) on which the same Change Request will be deployed for this i will be creating child work items equivalent to selected centers of the Change Request work item because every center would have a different workflow BUT the problem is when the Change Request reach to Approved state then i need start workflow of child work item and for that reason i need to first copy complete data which is inside Parent Change Request work item to all the child work items automatically.
I hope problem is stated correctly, kindly please me out guys to implement such requirement.

Yes, I understand.. you will have to write an extension to do all that

Do you have any kind of helping material for such kind of requirement actually i have a developer but i don't know how to start, what is the procedure for writing extension for such requirement and its really difficult to make developer understand about how he can implement such requirement.
I will be grateful to you if you have any document/guide etc then please send to the sajjadalikhan@msn.com
see the extensions workshop

the hardest part of the development process is learning the class library, which is not documented for server side extensions. Ralph has a good blog with lots of examples of pieces you will need.
