Returns (Boolean)
Copies the specified data elements in an array from one column to another. The function itself returns True when the copy is completed.

Remarks
The function copies data elements from one column to another (2nd dimension index position) over a range of 1st dimension indexes (rows).
The value for the Size input parameter should always be a whole number greater than 0 and is typically equal to the number of data elements in the array.
The CopyColumn function only works with two-dimensional arrays.
Example
Copies the data elements from column 2 to column 1 in the 4th through 6th rows of MyArray and assigns Condition1 to True when completed.
Array: myArray[6,2](0);
{… (add EL statements here to assign values to the array) }
Condition1 = CopyColumn(myArray, 2, 1, 4, 6);
