String page attribute default value not present on load during on CopiedPage event

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the expected behaviour or not... could someone offer me some advice on the following please? I have an event handler attached to the CopiedPage event. The behaviour appears to be the event is only fired once, regardless of how many pages are actually copied, I assume this is expected behaviour. What I want to do is extract the value of a property I have defined on the page type. The page type has a default value, which of course an editor may have altered. In the event handler (where e is the event), I notice that e.Page is not set, so I load using: PageData page = Global.EPDataFactory.GetPage(e.PageLink); I then attempt to read the property value, it is called propertyName, using: PropertyData data = page.Property[propertyName]; This gives me back a valid PropertyDataCollection instance. However data.Value returns null. The page I am copying does not have a null value, and the default value for the page property is not null. Can anyone tell me how I can reliably get the value of this property from the page being copied please? At the moment the best I can do is extract the default value from the page type by using the following code: PageData parentPage = EPiServer.Global.EPDataFactory.GetDefaultPageData(page.PageLink, page.PageTypeID); I'm using EPiServer 4.60.0.165 running on XP.
