I'm not sure how large the command will accept, but I usually use a
character of 512 and it needs to be in the format of:
'/directory/filename.extension' for the IFS.
If you were going to copy the file FROMFILE in QGPL and the first member to
the IFS in the temporary directory, the command would look like this:
DCL VAR(&FROMFILE) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
DCL VAR(&FROMLIB) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
DCL VAR(&FROMMBR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
DCL VAR(&TOSTMF) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(512)
DCL VAR(&TAB) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(1) VALUE(X'05')
CHGVAR VAR(&FROMFILE) VALUE('FROMFILE')
CHGVAR VAR(&FROMLIB) VALUE('QGPL')
CHGVAR VAR(&FROMMBR) VALUE('*FIRST')
CHGVAR VAR(&TOSTMF) VALUE('/tmp/' *CAT &FROMFILE *TCAT '.GO')
CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(&FROMLIB/&FROMFILE &FROMMBR) +
TOSTMF(&TOSTMF) RCDDLM(*CRLF) FLDDLM(&TAB)
Something like that.

Thanks John,
Can you please let me know what is the layout of the value which goes
into TOSTMF(&TOSTMF) -->To stream file?
Thanks,
