I was just about to mention this when Martin's message came through, to add to
this thread.
I used to find RPG source that contained /COPY members  easier to debug by
changing the source type to RPT and recompile naming the OUTFILE as DEBUGSRC.  I
would now have an expanded member and the source lines would match my dump
statements and I could debug the /COPY statements in ISDB.
