ls and wild card in cp - Should be simple!

I am trying to cp files that have F0 as prefix in their name in path p1/p2 to path p3/p4

this command does not work - Why? (I am using HP/UX)

cp p1/p2/F0* p3/p4

thanks.

OOPS...I must appologize, I can't seem to repeat the problem to get the error message!

I remember when I attempted it, it gave me an error like "...too many parameters..."

Sorry for the inconv.

Consider it closed.

Thanks.
