Re: CPYFRMIMPF Errors!

Hear you.  But DON'T rely on that workaround.  Traditionally they go away 
in the next release.  It's just an intermediate thing to give those who 
either didn't read, or couldn't understand, the Memo to Users and how this 
would affect them.  For an alternative (and it's a big leap for many 
people) you might try bypassing CPYFRMIMPF and CPYFRMSTMF altogether:

What the hey, you might even find doing it this way gives you more 
flexibility.

CPYFRMIMPF Errors!






This isn't so much a question as much as it is just a general complaint!

I use CPYFRMIMPF somewhat regularly for a handful of interface processes 
that have been developed over the years. With the release of V5R3, 
CPYFRMIMPF has become a real pain-in-the A**!!!
Mind you, one of the issues I had with it was my own fault (specs between 
FDF and PF wrong), but it worked on prior versions. I've logged at least 3 

of my problems with IBM and they have fixed one and pointed out the error 
on the other, but I still have one open, and then today, I find another 
problem that I can't seem to fix, but it works with the V5R2 version! 

My complaint really is that they've taken a utility that once was stable 
and usable and broken it majorly! Luckily, for now at least, the option is 

available to force it to use the V5R2 version of the utility, which does 
work.
