arraylist copy

Hi,

I have the following code :

Dim rNodeList As New ArrayList
Dim rNodeListNew As New ArrayList

For iCntr As Integer = 0 To tvRelations.Nodes.Count - 1
rNodeList.Add(tvRelations.Nodes(iCntr).Text)
Next

rNodeListNew = rNodeList
rNodeList.RemoveAt(2)

after I've filled rNodeList, it contains 8 elements.
So does rNodeListNew

But when I remove the element 2 of rNodeList, it is also removed in
rNodeListNew. Why ? Do they both point to the same memory location ?
How can I prevent that in vb ?

Thx

.
