I just had reason to look at eval-corr - turns out it is smart enough to do a mass move if the DS' have all the same fields. Nice!

But it does the field-at-a-time if there is a difference, either in order or name, I guess.

Depending upon what the differences are, you probably need eval-corr.

Remember that an eval will do a left-to-right (or r-l) move. It does not
respect field names et al.

This is some code to read a file and copy the row to create a new one.
I notice that when compiling, the DS obtained from LIKEREC ( MyFormat :
*INPUT ) is not the same as LIKEREC ( MyFormat : *OUTPUT ).

Therefore, in the example below, is it safe to use RecordOut = RecordIn
or is EVAL-CORR necessary?
Thanks.
