I think Vern's right here. I see this all the time when copying data between the same file, with the same Level Id, but different CCSID's. Using FMTOPT(*MAP) works just fine, or change the files so the CCSID matches.

Hello Åke

Is there a chance of a CCSID difference? If you execute DSPFFD against
them, is that identical? If so, I think this is a bug and IBM need to
explain this one.

I read in the docs that there is a chance for the format level IDs to be
the same and still have differences - a remote chance - and this may
happen with a long record format with lots of fields - something like
that. So they are not absolutely guaranteed to be unique for all
possible combinations. Still, this seems odd.

Bon chance!
Vern
