With this terminal command, you can copy parts of a screen into the Natural stack (%CS) or into the system variable *COM (%CC). The protected data from a specific screen line are copied field by field (except with option A; see below).

The second letter in the command determines where the data are copied to:

• %CC...
  Copies the data into the system variable *COM.

• %CS...
  Copies the data into the Natural stack. The data are placed on top of the stack as input data (as with a STACK TOP DATA statement).

The third letter in the command determines the line from which the data are copied:

• %CCC and %CSC
  Copies all protected data from the line in which the cursor is positioned, beginning from the field in which the cursor is positioned.

• %CCLnn and %CSLnn
  Copies all protected data from line number nn.

Moreover, you have the following options:

• %C...A
  Copies all of a line, that is, not only the protected data, but also the modifiable fields; the line is not copied field by field, but as a whole (including field attributes).

• %C...I
  Copies only the intensified fields from a line.

• %C...color
  Copies only the fields of that color from a line.

• %C...C1
  Copies only one field, namely the field in which the cursor is positioned (regardless of its attributes). (%C...L nn1 is not possible.)

• %C...CW
  Copies only the word (as delimited by blanks or special characters within a field) over which the cursor is positioned. (%C...LnnW is not possible.)

• %C...S
  Causes Natural to "stay" on the screen from which the data are copied, when the command is executed. This allows you to copy several different data from a screen, before you process the data.

When you enter the command directly as %C... (or assign it to a PF-key), it applies to the physical screen within the active window.
