On the CPYFRMQRYF command, the FROMOPNID parameter is used to identify an open identifier for the<br />
open query file to be copied from. The FROMFILE parameter is used in all other copy commands.<br />
If the to-file does not exist before the copy operation and the from-file is a physical or logical file, the copy<br />
operation will create a physical file as the to-file if you specified CRTFILE(*YES) on the copy commands.<br />
You can specify a program-described printer file so that the copy will produce a list with no special<br />
formatting or page headings, or you can specify TOFILE(*PRINT) to produce a formatted list. You can<br />
specify PRINT(*COPIED) to produce a formatted list of the copied records, you can specify PRINT(*EXCLD)<br />
to produce a formatted list of the records excluded by the INCCHAR or INCREL parameters, and you can<br />
specify PRINT(*ERROR) to produce a formatted list of records causing ERRLVL errors. When you request a<br />
list by specifying the TOFILE(*PRINT) parameter, the OUTFMT parameter specifies whether the data is<br />
printed in character or in both character and hexadecimal form.<br />
