Thanks Eric
If I try an Eval - Error - right and left don't match.
If I try a Move - Factor 2 (the ext record format name ) is not valid for the operation.

Should the output field be something other than a plain 128A if the ext format is 128

If you're looking for an exact image of the existing record format (all
packed decimal values remain packed), just copy the record format name
to your output field...

Subject: Ext File to non-Ext file

It's been a while since I have had to deal with this.

If I input an externally described file and want to write out the entire
record to a program described file, what is a good way to do that.

With 2 program described files, I just code a field for 1-256 REC and
write out REC as the only output field. Without 'REC', what is the
easiest way to get all the fields from the Ext-described file to the
prog-described file, without referencing all the fields.

I suspect it's pretty obvious and I'll feel stupid, but thought I would
ask.
