Hi, I've just downloaded the Bitcoin client, totally new to this. I can see that I can have multiple addresses from my one wallet, but I was just wondering what would happen if I sent some Bitcoin in another address of the same Bitcoin wallet? I dont want to do it, i just want to know what happens if an accident happens or something. Thanks for any help
what one of the person replyied is correct nothing the bitcoin will go to that addres ya but you will be charged with transaction fee, that will be loss for you .

I never sent bitcoin to another address from the same wallet before. But i think it's still has a transaction and you will get fee for that.

Yeah nothng crazy will happen like losing your coins or anything like that, you will be just sending the coins to yourself minus the fee.

nothing it's like sending to yourself minus fee
you can try this easily with a virtual machine to exchange money between the same wallet

You might also be able to send without any fee if you're prepared to wait a few days until some miner decides to be generous and include your transaction in a block even if it does not have a fee. You need to convince your wallet program that sending without a fee is really what you want, though.
However, if you're curious about these things you might want to experiment with testnet coins first until you are certain that you grasped the mechanisms and know how to work with your client. Testnet coins can be gotten for free, just ask someone who has some. There is also a faucet that hands out small amounts (just google it). Testnet coins can also still be mined with moderate effort (USB miners). But mining with a CPU doesn't really work (I tried it...)

You have slightly less bitcoin than before, due to the fee.
