RE: Copy & Paste on a command line

["Dan Bale" <dbale@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm running CA v3r2.  Lamar is using CAE 5.1.  When you mentioned Field
Wrap, I was referring to how it works on CA v3r2.  The help text I quoted
seems to indicate that it doesn't function for the purpose that Lamar was
asking about.

Someone else posted a link to an IBM page about a new feature PTF'd for CAE
which appears to add a new type of pasting option that seems to fit Lamar's
bill.

Ahh.  If you're copying text from our list email and pasting that, the line
breaks are already fed in (by the list server software?).  Try copying a
3-line paragraph from a Word document and pasting it to command screen; I'm
betting only the line that the cursor is on gets filled.  Let me know if I'm
wrong!

I works for me.  Are you running CA v3r2 or CAE 5.1?  You specified CAE 5.1
at first and now are saying 3.2?  I you just trying to past to a command
line?  If so, calling QCMD and pressing F11 will give you 17 lines of
command input.  I was able to copy your text and paste it on to the command
line.  I am running CAE 5.1 service pack SI01907.

Field wrap does not (at least in CA v3r2) work that way.  I tried it.  Does
it work for you, Chris?  According to the Help text:

Select Field Wrap if you want copied data that falls onto a protected field
to move to the next unprotected field.  If you do not check this box, any
data that falls onto a protected field is lost.
