I just, as a test, drug an entire source physical file from one system's library to a totally different library on another system. The source PF did not exist on the target system.
Worked though it did open each member in RSE. And seemed to pause until I closed the four or five members it opened; then finished by opening the other members in RSE, which I closed. Coping individual members (drag and drop) worked, too.
It barfed when I tried doing the same thing with both a program and a PF object.
As for the copy / paste method, I use that all of the time. I have templates for various program types. There are two ways I have found that work when I want to use a template for a new program. One is to open the template and, before using it, do a Save As. This works across systems (template on SystemA, Save to SystemB), though there's probably a security issue that might hinder this method for some (I have god-like authority on both systems). The other method is to start a New RSE member, as if I was going to write everything from scratch; then open the template, highlight all of the lines, then press Ctl-C; switch to the New member, then do a Ctl-V. The first method seems a little faster and easier to me.

Dave, neither of those options work for me. I don't get the paste option
when I try copy/paste. To drag and drop it takes forever to navigate to the
member I am coping to, and then I still can't drop it. I am attempting to
copy a source member from one to another with the same name. Basically,
move a source mod from dev to prod, over writing the existing member. Maybe
there's a flag I need to set of something?
Thanks for your help, Tim

Source is easy - select the members and drag/drop or copy/paste to a source
file on the other system. I haven't had much luck with anything else,
although I haven't tried very hard.
