Ah ha. Thanks for that $bill.

Long ago I derived my own Contact template from the default one and had my fingers crossed that through this inheritance, Copy Mailing Address might work. But i couldn't even figure out how to get it to work with the default Contact template!

In the absence of having inheritance of this behaviour, i might try and use Copy Form. Although this feature appears to be next to useless. I can't believe the values are only separted by <spaces> rather than something a lot more functional like a <tab> character. (If i've missed something somewhere like a Option that i should have set, somebody please call me a tosser and point me in the right direction.)

Copy Form Suggestion:
Separate fields with <tab> character. To enhance opportunity to script for consistent data processing, please delimit both populated and null values.
