Help with qcmdexc

 
List,
I have the following eval statement in my RPG program:

EVAL      CMD = 'CPYF(''' + %TRIMR(SOURCE) +       
                 ''') TOFILE(''' + %TRIMR(DEST) +  
                 ''') MBROPT(*REPLACE) +           
                      CRTFILE(*YES) FMTOPT(*NOCHK)'

When it executes, I get the following error:
                                                   
String beginning 'CPYF      ' not valid command name.

However, in debug the string looks like this:

       ....5...10...15...20...25...30...35...40...45...50...55...60      
  1   'CPYF('LIB1      FILE1     ') TOFILE('LIB1      FILE2     ') '     
61   'MBROPT(*REPLACE) CRTFILE(*YES) FMTOPT(*NOCHK)               '     
121   '                                                            '     

We are running V5R2. Any help in figuring out what I am doing wrong will
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Terry
