This subroutine copies the specified report from the source report definition file to the destination report definition file. (They can be the same file, as long as the report names are unique.) If you don’t specify the destination definition filename, RPTDAT:reports.rpt, is used. If you don’t specify the destination report name, the source report name is used. If a report already exists with that name, an error is returned.

This subroutine uses approximately 4K of global memory.

The following call copies the report A/R_MASTER from the file reports.rpt and stores it in the file myrpts.rpt with the name MY_A/R.

This call copies the report PAYROLL from the file reports.rpt and stores it in the file myrpts.rpt, keeping the same name.
