Move - it is like "cut" as in you move it and you don't have the document you moved in the folder you moved it from.

Copy - You can copy and paste all you want and make many, many copies of the document and not lose it. What I'm trying to say is that move is like, the exact opposite of copy.

*If you move, it remains to be one document. If you copy, it doesn't remain to be one document, you can make as many as you want, if you have enough memory.

Btw, sorry if my explaination was too long and if you can't understand it well. I'm not really good at it, I'm still practising.

Difference between fup copy and fup load?

Use the FUP COPY command to move data one record at a time. COPY allows you to copy part of a file, and to copy records to and from devices other than disks,including tape drives, printers, and terminals. COPY also allows you to change file types by copying a file of one type into a target file of a different type. Use the FUP LOAD command to move data into a structured file. Data is transferred one record at a time from the source file and moved one block at a time into the destination file. The LOAD command has these advantages: • Loading files does not affect alternate-key values.Because data is written a block at a time, • LOAD is faster than COPY.
