To Create a New Party from an Existing Party:
A new Party can be created from an existing party.  This provides the ease and convenience of carrying guests over from the original party.  New Guests can be added, and others can be deleted from the list. A case use example is when a homeowner has had a Graduation Party for several years, with the same Guests invited each time.
