Summary: Similar to entering "P" to get a Previous selection set while modifying objects, there would be a command, maybe "PC", to select a previously copied object.
Description: When copying an object, if we try to get the previous selection set by using "P" the original object is selected, not the copied one. Perhaps there could be a way to select the copied object instead.

You can do it programmatically with lisp, vba, or .NET.
Try irneb's SelectResults.lsp routine which offers many previous selection options including what you're looking for.
As I remember the move command with the copy option would make "P" select the object you want.
Maybe I misunderstood, but if you want the object that was just copied, use the (L)ast option. This selects the last object that was created.
Thank you for the responses. They have been very helpful.
