My text file has multiple record formats and I wish to not to create a 
file just for this first record.

Ok that's because your file only has one field so all others are
dropped.

Recreate the temporary file with the correct number of fields & it
should work fine.

No. 

As a matter of fact, I am doing this:

CPYFRMIMPF FROMSTMF('/TEST/2006_08_04_pay[1].20060804.013057.txt')
TOFILE
(QTEMP/TEMPORARY) MBROPT(*REPLACE) STMFLEN(132) RCDDLM(*ALL) FROMRCD(1
5) 
 

My txt file is:
10,08/04/06,01:19:04,00012345
20,820,999999999,"DEMO, AUTH","",""
20,820,999999999,"DEMO, AUTH","",""
20,820,999999999,"DEMO, AUTH","",""

My TEMPORARY file has with 5 records with special characters in the
first 
two positions: nothing else from position 3 and greater.  By the way,
the 
text file has 128 characters long and the first two characters equal the

record id: the third character is the first comma, as you can see in the

example above.

I just want to grab that first record and be able to copy it into 
QTEMP/TEMPORARY.

Hi list:

I want to get the first record of a text file in the IFS and be able to 
copy that into a file (let's say, QTEMP/TEMPORARY) which has 132 
characters long.

Can I do that using CPYFRMIMPF?  Is there a better way?

TIA,
