Re: Windows copy append

That is not what Bryan meant - Copy Append is an extra option in the Edit menu of iSeries Access - as well as Paste Next. Copy Append takes what you are copying and appends it to the end of what is on the clipboard. Very cool for copying multi-screen stuff like source or help text or whatever. Paste Next is the reverse - it starts pasting from where you left off - nice for pasting long source.

Of course, it's much easier in WDSC/RDi - where you don't deal with multi-screens - you can copy and paste the whole thing. There's probably not a reason for this feature in Windows apps other then the emulator.

Is there an action in Windows, let's say XP Pro, which does that same thing as Copy Append does for iSeries Access for Windows? It sure is handy.

You can do it from the command line. Start, Run, cmd.

Copy filea + fileb filec

Copies filea and adds fileb to create filec. You can add as many files with pluses as you wish. You can also do:

Copy fileb + filea fileb
