When you are copying the file tmp8 to tmp9, the old file is being
overwritten. The copy command will create a new file or overwrite an
existing file. Change the command file to:
build tmp9;rec=-80,,f,ascii;msg
file tmp9,old
fcopy from=tmp8;to=*tmp9
input _a < *tmp9
input _b < *tmp9
input _c < *tmp9
or
file tmp9;rec=-80,,f,ascii;msg
fcopy from=tmp8;to=*tmp9;new
input _a < *tmp9
input _b < *tmp9
input _c < *tmp9
Hope this helps,
