RE: CPYTOIMPF command -- COBOL400-L

Phil,

If your moving data to the IFS you don't need to use
the "To data base file:" parameter, just specify
your stream file (as you have done).

Also, if this file is going to be read by PC based
applications, change your "Stream file code page"
to *PCASCII and you'll have better results opening
it.

Terry
