Weight painting question - particle distribution

I have created a vertex group for particle distribution over a plane using weight painting. I would now like to copy that vertex group to make a second identical vertex group which I will then modify slightly and use to distribute a second particle system.

Question: Is it possible to copy a vertex group to make a second vertex group? If so, how?

Thanks for any clues.

clicking on the little arrow next to the vertex group field gives you some options. Copying to the same object or a different one…


mobimo, thank you very much. That is exactly what I needed.
