How to derive a section of a two-section part to create a new part.

Hello,

I am trying to create a new part from an existing part (existing part consists of 2 parts per package), but I only need section A for my new part.

I tried several ways of deriving the new part by searching for the entire part then selecting and placing only section A in my schematic, then Edit<Derive Database Part, but when I do that, it says "The part with the schematic part number xxx-xxxxx already exists..wuould you like to continue?" I do not want to overwrite the existing part, rather want to create a new one with a new part number and footprint number. How can I do that? Any help with this would be really appreciated.
