On 9.0 and later, it works. And prior to 8.5, it works.
You'll have to code the workaround yourself - in plain vanilla AS that is, but I'm sure several osaxen have more powerful duplicate commands...
An idea: duplicate the file, do a list folder, do a sub-list of the files beginning with the original file's name, eliminate the original file itself, you should be given the duplicate file's path.
