DuplicateHandle can duplicate handle for target process 
even it called from source process:
"If the process that calls DuplicateHandle is not the target 
process, the duplicating process must use interprocess 
communication to pass the value of the duplicate handle to the 
target process. " (from Help).
Calling DuplicateHandle from target process more suitable but
I suppose that better call DuplicateHandle from source process.
It is preventing uncontrolled expansion handles from target 
processes.
