Mark,

Absolutely correct, using FMTOPT(*MAP *DROP). In fact the layout doesn't
even need to be the same; it just needs corresponding field names. However,
a CPYF to a flat file with a single field as Çagatay originally had requires
*NOCHK and will therefore not unpack anything.

Thanks for pointing that out.

 Not true.  If the "to" file is the same layout, with the exception of the
numeric fields being zoned instead of packed, a CPYF will work!
