It's not the Nova Exchange. It's never a save file on the tape. If you
do a SAVLIB to tape then you have to do a RSTLIB to get it back from the
tape. Unless, you did a SAVLIB, and one of those things in the library
was a save file. Then what you might be trying to do is a RSTOBJ of just
that save file saved with SAVLIB.
What error are you getting with RSTLIB and/or RSTOBJ?
I do not think that you can do a CPYFRMTAP from a tape file to an existing
save file unless that save file was copied to the tape with CPYTOTAP, or
your pretty talented and figured out how to use RPG or something to read
objects and write it to tape in the same byte structure as a save file.
But in general, the format of a file on tape created with SAVLIB is not
going to match the format of a save file.
If it is that mangled and is that vital, you could try either reading the
file directly from a HLL like RPG or try various incantations of CPYFRMTAP
to some sort of file layout. Then read that file with some HLL and write
out to the object you desire.
