In Admin, click on the product and choose "Copy To". You will see a drop-down menu and you can then copy the same item to many different sections. If you choose Link Product, it will keep tabs on the quantities, but if you choose Copy Item, it will consider it a completely different item.

That shouldn't happen if you "link" them and not "duplicate".

Thanks, so if i link instead wont the user be taken to the original locatin of the item, so say i link from the womens footwear to the pair in mens footwear, wont the user be taken to the mens footewar section.

no. It copies the entire product to the new location, but simply "links" the product quantity.
