Auto Copy Type group box
The options in this group box control how data is copied using the Auto Copy function.
  • Select
    Within Alternative
    to copy the contents of the selected field automatically into all remaining fields in the same row within the same alternative.
  • Select
    Same Year
    to automatically copy the contents of the selected field into the same year and the same row of all remaining alternatives.
