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.
