Copy specific file (different but same name) as folder name

I have to copy a particular file present in a main folder having part of the file-name present in many sub-folders to a new destination preserving the name of the source "part of the main folder" and previous file-name of the output file:

Example:

Code:
From /005_0/1000/005.xxx -> /copy/005_1000.xxx
From /005_0/1001/005.xxx -> /copy/005_1001.xxx
From /005_0/1002/005.xxx -> /copy/005_1002.xxx
From /005_0/1003/005.xxx -> /copy/005_1003.xxx
From /005_1/1004/005.xxx -> /copy/005_1004.xxx
From /005_1/1005/005.xxx -> /copy/005_1005.xxx
From /006_0/1006/006.xxx -> /copy/006_1006.xxx
From /006_1/1007/006.xxx -> /copy/006_1007.xxx
From /006_1/1008/006.xxx -> /copy/006_1008.xxx
...

Can someone give me the command to type under RedHat (csh and bash) please? - Many thanks Smilie

face [-i init_file] [-c command_file] [-a alias_file] [filename...] DESCRIPTION
The Framed Access Command Environment Interface (FACE) presents your files and file folders on the screen through a system of menus and forms if you are properly set up as a FACE user. filename must follow the naming convention Menu.xxx for a menu, Form.xxx for a form, and Text.xxx for a text file, where xxx is any string that conforms to the UNIX system file naming conventions. The Form and Menu Language Interpreter (FMLI) descriptor lifetime will be ignored for all frames opened by argument to face. These frames have a lifetime of immortal by default. If filename is not specified on the command line, the FACE Menu will be opened along with those objects specified by the LOGINWIN environment variables. These variables are found in the user's .environ file. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -a alias_file Alias file -c command_file Command file -i init_file Initial file OPERANDS
The following operand is supported: filename The full pathname of the file describing the object to be opened initially. EXIT STATUS
The face command will return a non-zero exit value if the user is not properly set up as a FACE user. FILES
