I've used PS for many years professionally, and finally I've started to migrate to LR4 for some of my bulk work.

So, I've got 300 images that I have processed to produce color jpegs. No problems there. Now I need to produce 300 Black & White duplicates of the same images. I really don't want to have to undo all the work I've done to make the colour jpegs. Surely there must be an obvious way to make a second BW version?

Any help and advice would be great!
 
Should be simple. Select all the original images and make virtual copies of them, then convert the copies to b&w. You an apply all this to them all at the same time or adjust each individually. Once done they can be output as jpg. The virtual copies don't actually make a copy of the original file just an extra set of instructions for processing. You can make as many virtual copies as you want, ideal for experimenting.
 
even easier alter one image to b&w the sync all the others, export, then use CTRL z to undo changes.
