Being unsure of what "the file" is in the above quoted text...

If the data is already exported pipe-delimited into a "flat file" [into either PF-SRC or a program-described PF-DATA] then the CPYTOSTMF should be used instead of CPYTOIMPF to place the data in a file of "the IFS". The purpose of CPYTOIMPF is to effect an export-database-data-to-text, not the much more simplistic effect of copy-text-to-text which is provided by the CPYTOSTMF.
