you don't need a parameter form for that one.
You can just send your DUPLICATES in a Userparameter which is set in the
calling program ("DUPLICATES=<value>"). If you don't have the parameter form
just copy that value in the BEFORE-REPORT trigger into "copies".
If you have a parameter form, than you can do the copy in the
BEFORE PARAMETER FORM trigger and than the user can change it, if he wants.
