Is there any function that gives a copy of object to agent?

Do you mean like llGiveInventory, where a copy (if you have copy perms on the object/texture/script/whatever) of an in-objct inventory item is given to an agent?

Or a copy of the prim itself? Which no there isn't a method.

I ment copy of prim itself - thats what I thought - couldn't find anything in wiki so asked here - thought something new maybe. Anyway thanx - i think that would be usefull function because now I need to figure out how to pass data hold in description - I think I'll give prim from the remote server and rez it near mother object which will pass the data via llSay.

But the standard approach is to take a copy of the prim itself, and put it into its own inventory. It can be a pain to maintain, but it works.

That's not the solution in my case - I need to get data from mother prim, update it and pas to the child prim, and then pass it to new owner.
