 
 CNV allows you to perform the following functions:
 
    1)	create a new Sequential file from the records of an
	existing Sequential, Relative, or Indexed file.
 
    2)	supersede an existing Sequential file with the records
	of another Sequential file or the records of a Relative
	or Indexed file.
 
    3)	append to a Sequential file the records of another
	Sequential file or the records of a Relative or Indexed
	file.
 
    4)	write into an existing Relative or Indexed file the
	records of another file of any organization.
 
 Note that IFL is the fastest, most direct, and most efficient
 method of populating an empty RMS-11 Indexed file.  Type HELP
 IFL COMMAND for an explanation of its command line and switches.
 
 Type HELP CNV COMMAND for an explanation of CNV's command line
 and switches.
 
2 COMMAND
 
 The general form of CNV's command line is:
 
	outfile[/switch(s)]=infile[/switch]
 
 Switch		Type	   Description			Default
 
 ?		String	   Print HELP message		No help

 /SL[:file]	Global	   Provide summary listing	No summary
			   (in file, if specified)
 
 /AP		Outfile	   Append records to		No append
			   Sequential file
 
 /BL[:nnnn]	Outfile	   Set magtape block size	512 bytes
 
 /FO:val	Outfile	   File organization		Sequential file
 
 /LO		Outfile	   Follow fill numbers when	Fill buckets
