I want to select and copy only one set of coloum using File-aid.
Example:
File contain records with length = 100 Bytes
We need to select and copy record from char 41 to 50 in different file.
How is it possible using file-aid.
May you please help icon_smile.gif

File Aid is not installed in every site, so not as many people will be able to help.

What have you researched yourself, please show us your code that you have tried so far

The File Aid manual explanation of COPY is quite clear -- so what do you not understand about what you read in the manual?

With modern manuals as PDF's did you throw just your hard drive or the whole computer or maybe just a small USB Drive?

it means that all the due diligence has been done
availability of the tool
availability of the relative skills
pros/cons of using one tool rather than another one ( <SORT> in this case )

so You/Your organization should not have the need to ask on a forum icon_cool.gif
