we have 2 PF files with same name, how to copy data's from
one file to another through RPG program logic?

Answer Posted / syam

You can't declare 2 pf in the RPG program with same name.
If you declare, system will give error on compilation
(*RNF2026 30).
You can rename same record name in RPG program.
You can rename fiel name in RPG program.
You can't keep 2 pf in one library with same.

to 1 pf thru CPYF cl command.
