Hi,

I need to copy 3rd and 4th record from Member1 and paste it after 6th record in Member2. Both these members are in different PDS. Please let me know how can I do this.

nair,

You can use the Block commands for the same

Open the member 1

- CC and CC and then CUT

open the 2nd member

- A/B (after/before) and then PASTE .

Hi enrico and Aaru,

Thanks for the help. It is now working fine. Earlier I was trying with COPY.

If the records are not in sequence, for example, if you want the 2nd record and 6th record from member 1 to member 2 in sequence.

Cut the contents into a clipboard

use line command "C" in line 2nd and

Hi Jiji,

The solutions mentioned are probably faster, but you CAN use COPY to do what you want:

On the 6 th line of Member 2 enter an "a", then on the cmd line enter "COPY", then hit enter. On the next panel that appears enter the DSN and member in the space provided {e.g. MY.DSN(MEMBER1)}.

At the bottom of the screen you'll see places to enter the 1st line and last line to copy and the number type. Enter them - Use "R" for the number type.
