Copy record syntax

| I need to copy records from an existing file to a new file which has

| qualifiers, not the base file which will remain empty.  Currently using 
| fP 4.8 but in the process of moving to 5.x.
| 
| Can anyone suggest the proper syntax and/or procedure to make this 
| happen.  I believe that qualified file handling must be one of the most 
| under-documented sections in all of filePro literature.

You would be doing a lookup to newfile to get a free record wherein to
copy.  In this case, do your lookup to newfile at qualifier.
