You can do this easily in MPEX:
COPY YO@(BETWEEN(FILE,"YO012311","YO012320")), =.Y.Z

The POSIX shell solution might look something like this (note -- this is
one
unwrapped statement):
cp $(find /ACCT/GRP -type f | sort | awk '/YO012311$/,/YO012320$/ {
print }')
/NEWACCT/NEWGRP
IIRC, you don't need the sort on MPE. But the find results on some
Unixes
don't return files in sorted order, so my example uses sort in order to
be
multi-platform.
This example assumes the list of files to be copied is non-huge. A huge
list
would overflow shell command buffers at some point. There are
alternative
approaches that would avoid this problem.
