David,
So what happens when you right click on the PGM and select Move from the
context menu?

Edmund,

Still doesn't work. I tried a savf. In fact I vaguely recall knowing that
was the only kind of object u could copy like that. In the target
connection I created an object filter to show only save files of the
curlib. Tried dragging the savf to the filter : same message. Dragged the
savf to the library in the libary list filter : works.

Vern, nice to learn that at least you could right click on an object then
Save.

David and Vern
Please ignore my previous notes on this subject, Vern is
absolutely right that we cannot copy and paste any other
object beside SAVF because they cannot be represented as a
stream of bytes in the clipboard.
In order to do this properly, the tool needs to know both the
source and target of the move or copy, which is why drap and
drop is the right way to move objects around on the IBM i.
So making sure that the target filter is open, click on the
source object and hold the mouse down and move to the target
library. The operation will be a copy.
(This is were the open as table can make things more
convenient) Alternatively and very simply, you can right
click on the PGM and select the move operation.

No need to go back to PDM :-),

I apologize for being to quick speak without double checking my facts.

Edmund Reinhardt

As far as I know, the only object type that can be copied
from one connection to another is a save file. Programs
cannot be copied. I have
rdp7.6 and tried to drag a program from one to another - got
your message. Tried dragging a save file, worked fine.

This is how things work now on the i - you have to make a
save file of any object to get it to another system. I'm
talking of using FTP - there is a way using the FileSvr.400 -
whatever it's called - but that might not be available
through the client.

I wish the client could do what SAVRSTOBJ does - then
anything could be copy/pasted.

Now you can drag any member to another connection - just have
to drop it on the container source file. You can't drop it
within the content list of a source file, even though, to me,
the icon shown while dragging suggests that you can, based on
other windows behavior. Sigh!

That's my experience, anyhow - maybe I'm missing something, too.

Hi,

I'm having trouble with this on Rdp7.6. I don't remember such a
problem
on WDSc6, just that I didn't do it much because of the time it took.

In Connection1, I drill down into my object filter (or the same if I
drill into the libraries filter), select my program object
right click and copy.

In Connection2, I do the same. I have a filter pool with the same
object
filters. The library list for the connection determines the
objects displayed. If I right click the paste option will
show if I want to paste in the libraries filter. I select the
library name, click paste and get :

Invalid transfer operation
The source mylib/mypgm OBJTYPE(*PGM),
cannot be transferred into the target myotherlib
OBJTYPE(*LIB:TEST-CUR)

Here, the target lib is the curlib for the connection. If I choose
another library, I get no message, but no copy either.

Bug or me?
