hi,
Normally when I try to copy a member within a dataset, I just put a C beside the member I want. I have a 5 part qualifier name. (ie Test.training.Data.Com.D0680212)
I am trying to copy this to my own dataset, but the normal c or copy is not working??

thanks

to get good answers You have to post good questions..

telling it does not work is just a waste of time for everybody

what happened when You used the PF1 to see the long message and the <copy> help ?

when I try C I get invalid request and Managed data sets cannot be cataloged.

When I try Copy I get

Put a / (forward slash) in front of the name (member or file) you want to copy, and you will be guided!

when I try C I get invalid request and Managed data sets cannot be cataloged.

did it occur to You that C might have a different meaning when used on a 3.4 dataset list

enter a random string in the line command area and hit PF1 two times,
ISPF will enter the HELP path where You can find all about the line commands available

Thanks mate, that sorted it

So you got it resolved but what has this to do with the COBOL language? It seems more like an ISPF question.

Will know for the future, thought it was cobol, sorry
