RE: [WDSCI-L] Cut/Past in WDSc

["Tyler, Matt" <mattt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jim, I use Aldon CMS iSeries product and WDSCi plug-in and have done
something similar.

1. I selected all from the new source and copied (CTRL-C)
2. I select all from the old source (CTRL-A) (cursor is placed at bottom
afterwards)
3. I pasted the new source into the old source member (CTRL-V)
4. I then deleted the old source (CTRL-X)

I just tried this to make sure I was not lying and except for RSE thinking I
wanted the new member opened again when I double-clicked on the old (same
name just different source file libraries), it all worked great.   Also, I
am on WDSCi v5.1.2.1.  

Thank you,

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Cut/Past in WDSc

Maybe I'm going about this all wrong, but I have two source members in
different files.  Both are the same program, one has vendor updates in it.
 I open them both up in WDSc using RSE (I think) and do a compare just to
see what changed.  Then I want to copy the new one (vendors copy) over my
old one (actual a copy checkout into Development under Aldon CMS).  I can
delete all the lines in the old source member, by doing a select all and
Cut.  But when I do a Select all and do a copy (of the new one) and try an
past into the old one I get Nada!  Zip, Zero.  If I open up Word or some
text editor it won't past either (mater of fact word will show me the
clipboard and it is empty).

I know I could go do a "CPYF" and copy the new member to the old and
replace it, but that leaves me room for errors, (ie: get wrong
file/libr/mbr) where after I've just compared them I should stand a better
chance of not messing it up.  In SEU I'd just split screen and do D99999
to delete and C99999 to copy everything from the second one to the first
and be done.  Can't seem to do that  in WDSc.  Am I using the wrong
editor?  Wrong approach?  Not holding my mouth right?

This should be this hard, so I know I'm just doing something the way it's
intended  And I need to get this figured out as my next vendor update is
for one I can't do in SEU ( Yep, one of those unspeakable programs that is
46,000 lines long!)  Better for them to maintain it than me.

Thanks for any suggestions and/or help.
