Question

Is there any way I can get a past copy of a work plan without performing restoration. I do not want to perform restoration because if I do so the current version of
the plan will get over ridden. I think if I publish the current version of the plan with a different name and then perform restoration it will not override the current version of the plan.

I do not understand what you are trying to accomplish.  Are you trying to create a duplicate of the current enterprise project, but with a different name?  If so, there is one pretty simple way to do this.  Open the enterprise project and
click File > Save As.  In the Save to Project Server dialog, click the Type pick list and select Template.  Edit the name for this temporary enterprise template so that it is different from the project name, and then click the Save button. 
In the Save as Template dialog, do not select any of the checkboxes and then click the Save button.  When the system finishes saving the project as a template, close the project.  Now click File > New > Project Server Template.  Select
the template you just saved and then click the OK button.  You now have an exact copy of your project, ready for you to save and publish.  Hope this helps.
