  The DATA() parameter does not apply to logical files.  Logical 
files are merely a /view/ of the data, and as an object do not have 
any data to be duplicated.

  For a database logical file being duplicated, the /library list/ 
of the job performing the request is moot, with respect to what the 
based-on files either are or will become.  As Crispin suggests, the 
constant alluding otherwise, is just /urban legend/; i.e. a legend 
based on myth\untrue, that seems never to die.
