I am trying to copy dictionary items into a file.

Eg:
   copyrow dict.customer.new * to: (dict.customer
Gives:
    error while copying row
         "%Fields%"
    to the "DICT.CUSTOMER" field
The %Fields record did not exist in dict.customer.new

before the copy but did after.

Any suggestions.

this is to be expected - %FIELDS% is a protected field built on the fly as dict items are created. Ignore the message.

OK - before doing the copy
 Select dict.filename with @id not "%]"
then perform the copy…
