RE: Archiving Spool Files.

Hi!
We use SpyView from Magellan and we are really happy with it! Allan surely
can tell you more, I only want to say that once we setup it - it keeps
working. But if all that you want is just to burn your reports on a CD in
*.txt format, maybe it would be enough to install Operations Navigator on a
PC with CD Recorder and drag&drop reports. If you want more user friendly
names of files, you can write a Perl script that will open each one in turn,
check what it is (easy with query/400 output with title page, possible for
every report) and change it's name. Than just mark all spool files, drag on
PC's disk, run your script and copy to catalog for given day on CD. You can
go a step further, and make your script to convert all Polish letters better
than this transfer does, if your reports contain Polish letters of course
;-)
