Mark, Thanks for you help. Perhaps I understood subconsciously that I would be forced to use the ActionCreatetiddler with all the problems of the field cloning. I may look at the message and widget to see if I can make a new one that does what I want? This should not be so difficult.

Method #2 should create a clone, including any fields and text. If it doesn't, make sure sure that your <> macro is returning the value you think it is. My guess is that the macro is accidentally returning an empty value. The example worked for me in testing, cloning all fields. The
