Another *duh* moment brought to you by the programmer from Oklahoma.   :(  

Code/400 is a pretty good full screen editor.  Copy & paste took about 3
minutes, including opening and closing.

Hi Martin

Yeah you do, instead of using a PF-DTA use a PF-SRC and SEU to edit the
text.  You can still read the file data using your print program.
 
Alternatively if the file is not externally described (or if you create
a document in the IFS) you can use the EDTF command to edit it - it's
not pretty, but...
 
Another option would be to create or edit a text document on your PC and
upload it to the 400...
 
All the best
