FCOPY Command Syntax

This is the syntax for the FCOPY command.

   FROM  [ = {fromfile

              *

              * <file>

              <empty>} ];TO [ = { {(datafile,keyfile)

                                  (tofile)       }

                                 tofile

                                 *

                                 * <file>

                                 <empty>           } ] [; functionlist ]

where:

fromfile: Is the name of the input file.
tofile: Is the name of the output file.
(tofile): Is the name of a KSAM XL file.
(datafile,keyfile): Are the names of the data and key files of a new KSAM V/E or CM KSAM file.
*: Indicates the fromfile or tofile designated in the FCOPY command issued immediately before the current command. The file continues at the record after the one at which the prior operation stopped.
*<file>: Indicates the fromfile or tofile specified in a previous file equation.
<empty>: Represents no entry. By leaving this blank, you specify the standard job or session device: $STDIN for the fromfile and $STDLIST for the tofile.
functionlist: Represents one or more FCOPY functions. The functions may appear in any order; however, there are some restrictions for combining functions. The syntax of each individual function is given in chapter 5.
