duplicate a whole col within a table ?

[steamPunk]

Hi
I need to find a way to duplicate a whole column within a table so the new col has a different name but the contents are copied line by line from the old column to act as a temporary reference

I could just create the new col manually but how would i say "copy the contents of col1 into col2" for each line ?

I can't find a thread that mentions doing this

thanks for any help you can give
