You need to add a target attribute to your asp:Hyperlink element, and set it to "_blank"e.g.

<asp:HyperLink runat="server" target="_blank"
Text="Copy & Create" CausesValidation="False" NavigateUrl='<%# "fldCopyCreate.aspx?fldID=" &
Container.DataItem("Field_ID") & "&tblID=" & Container.DataItem("Table_ID") & "&fldLogiName=" &
Container.DataItem("Logical_Name") %>' />

See HyperLink.Target Property[^] on MSDN
