MPE V to MPE XL: Getting Started

Lesson 7:  Copying from Other Groups and Accounts 

Given proper file security, you can copy files from other groups within
your account, and even from other accounts, with the COPY command.

You would enter the following to copy a file named INFORM from the PUB
group of the MKTG account and give it the name MKTGINFO in your own group
and account.

     COPY FROM=INFORM.PUB.MKTG;TO=MKTGINFO

or

     COPY INFORM.PUB.MKTG, MKTGINFO

If you copy the file named INFORM from the PUB group of the MKTG account,
but do not give it a target filename, the file is copied into your
current group with the name INFORM.

Exercises 

14.  Verify that you have a group in your account called LABS. Get into
     the LABS group.

15.  While in the LABS group, create a file called RICARDO. Copy RICARDO
     back to your home group.  Return to your home group and verify that
     the copy was successful.

16.  How did you get from your group to the LABS group and back again?
