Can I duplicate a predefined list?

I'd like to duplicate the Predefined List called "Country", and call the second Predefined List "OtherCountry" as once I duplicate it, I will be able to modify it while keeping the original list intact.

Is there a way to do this without creating a brand new list and having to type in every item?

Thanks.

Good Luck.

 Thanks, Prashank, however, I'm more of a front-side user than that. Can you give me more steps to "Just import this sql" and where would I find a "phpmyadmin"?  Embarassed

No, sorry. I'm just proficient with moving things around via the Admin access. I don't do server uploading and even if I did, once I do all of that server uploading, you still haven't explained how to make a copy of a predefined list.

It seems like it should be easier than that just to duplicate an existing list.

Prashank25 was offering a tool to do what you wanted to do.  The php file would have created the list you desire by running the sql instead of importing it.  To do much modification you have to have access to the files.  If you have a control panel, they usually will have a file manager you can use in place of FTP.  If you are unsure or don't have the skills to do these things, then you will have to find someone that can access the server and do them for you.

Thanks, GG. I was hoping for something more like a Copy-Paste action within the framework of the Admin panel. Oh, and please kick Prashank25, per his request.

 You like copy-paste? So, go ahead and do so in predefined list page, copy every country to new list one-by-one. Whats the point of this question?
