Default Move/copy category structure?

I have a category that I have populated with subcategories and products. I want to create another category that is basically a carbon copy of the existing category structure with only the top level name changed.

Is there a way of copying the existing category structure and renaming it? Or is there a way of getting a category link on the category menu to point to another categoryid? So, for instance, I could have, "Spares and Accessories" and "Accessories and Spares" pointing to a single category?

I would simply add the products to an additional category if they weren't also in different and multiple categories so I can't multiple do the multiple select update thing

I've tried code in categories.tpl with:

{if $categories[cat_num].categoryid eq 100}<a href="home.php?cat=50">{$categories[cat_num].category}</a>{/if}

but all that does is create two category entries...any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Dan
