RDz, copy from FileManager on mainframe to Excel on local

Today, when a customer does a copy/paste from mainframe, the raw data are copied. The customer is using File Manager with the Eclipse plug-in. The FM copy function has only the mainframe as target. The RDz copy function does not take the FM format into account. It is possible to use the FM copy 2 export function (from the mainframe only, not the plug-in as explained in RFE 21885) as explained in the attached document, and then use RDz copy/paste to download the formatted data.
