{{DISPLAYTITLE:wpCopiedFromTemplate}}
This instance method is called to allow an object to perform class-specific processing when a new object is created from a template.

==Syntax==
 _wpCopiedFromTemplate(somSelf)

==Parameters==
;''somSelf'' ([[WPObject]] *) - input
:Pointer to the object on which the method is being invoked.
:Points to an object of class [[WPObject]].

==Returns==
:There is no return value for this method.

==How to Override==
This method should be overridden by object classes that need to initialize the new object after it is created from a template.

==Usage==
This method is generally called only by the system.

==Example Code==
<PRE>
#define INCL_WINWORKPLACE
#include <os2.h>

WPObject *somSelf; /* Pointer to the object on which the method is being invoked. */

_wpCopiedFromTemplate(somSelf);
</PRE>

== Remarks ==
This method is called immediately after a new object is created from a template. The system does not do any default processing for this method. This method is typically overridden to perform class-specific initialization on a created object. For example, a customer order-form class would prefill the date, time, and order number in an instance of itself that was created from a template.
