I lost the original poster information, but the DUPRDO command works like a

Subject: Re: Copying logical files from one library to another
Along the lines of "Let me Google that for you", let me look at the help
for the CRTDUPOBJ command for you <grin>:
When a logical file is copied into another library, two cases
determine the basing for the file:
1. If both the logical file and its based-on physical file are
originally in the same library, a duplicate of the physical
file must be created in the new library before a duplicate of
the logical file is created. After these two duplicates are
created, the new logical file is based on the new physical
file.
2. If the logical file and its based-on physical file are
originally in different libraries, it is not necessary to
duplicate the physical file before duplicating the logical
file. In this case, the duplicated logical file is based on
the same physical file as was the original logical file.
Unlike the first case, even if the physical file is copied
into the new library before the logical file is copied, the
duplicated logical file is based on the original physical
file, not on the duplicated physical file.
