Hello ALL!

  Being a newbie to programming, especially C, I need to find a way to move
a file from one subdirectory to another and also across drives whether it
is a logical or primary drive. I'm using Watcom C/C++ 10.0a under OS/2 3.0
and have a book that documents the API calls available in the OS/2 kernel
and I see in the API that there is a Dosmove and a Doscopy but I see no
reference in the Watcom online Docs about using either of these API calls.
The book I mentioned has a code segment but Watcom does not like alot of
the variable types and also Watcom could not find a prototype for dosmove.
The types look like a short hand for unsigned characters (UCHAR), I think
this book was written using the syntax for IBM's Cset/2 compiler, but the
prototype has me lost  Anybody have any tips or possable an example code
segment available?
