Ah, good. I'm not surprised, but certainly pleased. :-)

bcopy has not been used and tested much, due to lack of interest by the users.
It does not put the results of the copy in the catalog, so after the copy,
you must do a bscan. The documentation is not very complete so users
probably don't understand all the limitations. In this case, bcopy would
have tried to read to the EOD and would have gotten an error -- leaving you
in doubt about the results.

It was designed that way (not very hard), and it is good that you have
confirmed it -- I'll add some notes to the manual based on your
experiences ...
