You can release this array before second copy, e.g.
release laOutput
acopy(..)

>>>Hi

>>>OK, I have a property (which is an array) in my object which I ACOPY into a local array, I thought that ACOPY increases the elements in a destination array to match the source array, this works fine the first time, but when I want copy another property (array) into the same local array, it errors.

>>>

LOCAL laOutput(1, 1)

>>>=ACOPY(this.aArray2, laOutput)

>>>this.aArray1 is [6, 9] and this.aArray2 is [7, 9].
