use quotations for the source and destination tape names. Also ensure you have a blank tape in the target group which can be formatted with the give name.

I did use Quotes. What you see is from the Log file created. Here is the actual command line.
tapecopy -s TAPLIB -d TAPLIB -t"W-NG09 FUL-FRI- 3/27/09" -c"COPYW-NG09FUL-FRI-3/27/ 09"
I removed this part at the end -c"COPYW-NG09FUL-FRI-3/27/ 09" and was able to get it to work that way.
