Re: PF with arrival sequence using CPYF ?

["Simon Coulter" <shc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Murali,

Specify FROMRCD(1) to force CPYF to read the file in arrival sequence.  Without 
this incantation CPYF reads 
the file via the key (if one exists).  In general, if you do not want the data 
in the target file written in 
key order you should always force CPYF to process sequentially since it will 
run much faster due to record 
blocking.

You don't need *ALL authority to use CRTDUPOBJ on a file.  You need *OBJOPR, 
*OBJMGT and *READ.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
