Discussion

OT CopyItem copies the item referenced by inSourceTag to the item referenced by inDestTag. The item referenced by inDestTag need not exist; it will be created if necessary. The source and destination objects may be the same, allowing either duplication of an item at the same level of embedding within an object, or copying an item from one level of embedding to another.

If either object handle is not valid, or if the source item does not exist, or if the source item and destination item do not have the same type, an error is generated, OK is set to zero, and no copy is performed.

Note Copying an embedded object copies all of its items.
