Jim;
In the past, I have put the files into PACKAGE File Entry and then
extract the package as a DIFROM package. This set of routines are
there to establish the new files into an existing structure which may
or may not already have these files. Then edit the routines to change
ALL of the file numbers to the new domain and the names of ALL of the
Files (don't worry about the fields except for the subfile numbers,
these will need to be changed to the new number space), but all of the
FILES need to be different from those that they were copied from (if
you really want a separation). If you are carrying data across in the
DIFROM, you will probably have some consistancy problems. If you can
help it, just carry the file structures over this way with DIFROM (yes,
it is something that you could DIe FROM).
