I meant that there were no load modules in a PDSE. The format of a load module is nothing remotely like the format of a program object. Of course, you could allocate a PDSE that was not a library and copy members from a load library, but Fetch would not be able to load them. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

There are no load modules in a PDSE. Off the top of my head I don't even recall whether it is valid for program objects. The COPY statement should work fine for PDSE. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

It should be, a$$uming you want to copy ALL members without any reblocking with COPYMOD and that both datasets RECFM, LRECL, BLKSIZE, etc. are the same. Perhaps you can drop SYSUT3 and SYSUT4 and add this one: //SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=* Are you getting any error message(s)?
