I would like to copy the contents of one field to another field using the command line. I found this MCC command MCC_MOVE_COPY_FIELDS which has command number 23027.

Suppose I want to copy the contents of field F1 to that of field F2 for all items in the library, what should the command look like? Judging from the examples something like

MC32.exe /MCC 23027,0

but how do I specify which fields?

I could not find much on the web, so all help will be appreciated.

That command just opens the Move/Copy Fields dialog, it takes no arguments. You can do the bulk copy using that dialog.

If you need automation to do it repeatedly... one option is to just overwrite the field's .JMD file on the library folder- copy "field (F1).jmd" to "field (F2).jmd" - though you may need to close/restart MC for that to work.

That is helpful. I may go the latter route. Thanks!
