It is better to keep the topic as the other BOBers may find it using BOB’s search when they will search for this add-in too. :yesnod:

In version 6.5 SP3 (I don’t know about previous versions), this function is built within BO. The “new data wizard” has the option “Use an existing query to build a new one”. This simply starts a new query, as a copy of a previous one.

So no need for add-ins.

Regards

Andy

Unless you want to copy the data provider between documents. The “Use existing query” only works within a single document.
