copy book is nothing but pre written cobol statements and
can be used in any division in cobol pgm ,you can code move
statement in copy book and copy in procedure division.

Answer / tata

we can use move in copy book. but
if ur copybook contains procedure division statements
with move statement.. then that variables which were wriiten
with move statement, should be declared in ws-section of
data division.
in this particular case only this is possible.. in all
other cases this is not popssible.
