<h1 class="topictitle1"> Creating a duplicate to-file member</h1>
<div><p>You can create duplicates to-file members without doing the copy
file action again.</p>
<div class="p">When your application requires an exact duplicate of the records in the
to-file member (if either the from-file is empty or contains data), an alternative
solution is to use the <a href="../cl/clrpfm.htm">Clear
Physical File Member (CLRPFM</a>) command: <pre>CLRPFM FILE(X) MBR(XYZ)
CPYF FROMFILE(Y) TOFILE(X) TOMBR(XYZ) +
MBROPT(*ADD)</pre>
</div>
<p>Because MBROPT(*ADD) is specified, the <a href="../cl/cpyf.htm">CPYF</a> command completes normally even if there is no data
in file Y. MBR(XYZ) in file X contains an exact duplicate of the records in
the member in file Y.</p>

The to-file can be a physical database file, diskette file, tape file, program-described printer file, or *PRINT.">Copy files: basic functions</a></div>
