As Rob and Joe pointed out the columns must be in the same positions.
To get this to work with in INSERT statement you would have to list all the
columns.
INSERT INTO wlklib/dshpf34 COLUMNS(col1, col2, ...)
( select a.* from DSHXFR/DSHPF34 a )
make the order of the columns in dshpf34 match the column order of
dshxfr/dshpf34.

More specifically, Steve needs to keep in mind that SELECT simply
returns a list of values for each row. Those values have no names
associated with them. So the columns specified in the COLUMNS portion
of the INSERT statement have to appear in the same order that they are
defined in DSHXFR/DSHPF34.

Alternatively you could use a CPYF with FmtOpt(*MAP *DRP) and this should
popule correctly

This is much simpler, though not as flexible (SQL lets you easily
filter or sort, for example).
