Duplicating movie buttons in flash 8

How does one duplicate a button?

Right click the button and duplicate. I have done this, but when I edit it's name, the button which I had duplicated also changes to the new name I give the second button. How do I over come this?

yeah i have had this problem before, if you duplicate a button then you are also duplicating the settings, names, colours of that button and when you make changes to the duplicate you are also changing the original..

change the symbol name of the duplicate that should work
