Answer / rajesh_m13

Copy Will expand at compilation time.
Include will expand at pre-compilation time.

Answer / prabhat

As stated above, INCLUDE expands in precompilation and COPY
in compilation.

If that is the case, why we require INCLUDE, can't COPY be
used instead? Here is the reason:

DB2 precompiler can't process COPY statements, not it
connect to DB2 directories to validate the Table Attributes
(Columns, Name, Data Type) and thus uses the DCL statements
embedded in INCLUDE.

Answer / guess

both can be used for same including the copy structures...
copy will be expand during compilation and include will be
expand during pre compilation...

Answer / shabukumar

Both are used for copying the data.

However you cannot use copy verb in between exec and end-
exec.

Answer / ganesh
