Scott,
This data will be coming from an external server.
Each subdirectly will represent data from a different country.
The client has decided that they want a separate folder for each country.

I can create a loop to traverse each directory and use CPYTOSTMF to copy
the data and remove the file with DEL after the copy, but I was hoping for
a simple one line solution for the copy and for the delete.

Thanks,

hi Jeff,

Why would your text file be in multiple subdirectories? Surely there's
some program logic that controls where it goes? If it's truly assigned
to a directory /randomly/ (this seems very unlikely to me) then you're
going to need some way to identify your new files vs. existing ones. Do
you have a naming convention or other criteria that could be used to
distinguish it?

Can you explain the scenario a little better?!

All,
I have a text file that will reside in multiple sub directories within
the
same parent that I need to copy to a DB2 flat file.
After the copy is complete, I would like to delete all of the files I
copies.

I do not think that there is any IBM CL Command that will do this, but
perhaps the GURU's here can point me to a Unix /AIX command that I can
run
from a CL program.

Thanks,
