William,

There are actually two user data fields
One is User Specified Data and it is 10 characters long
The other is User Defined Data and it is 255 characters long.

Make sure you are retrieving the correct one that you want. Many people
get the two mixed up.

Hi,
I'm trying to retrieve the "User Data" (usrdta) field from spool files
on an
OutQ.  I've been trying the QUSRSPLA API, format SPLA0100, and it
doesn't
give me what I want.  I've looked at the record-layout specs for this
format.  It has a field called "user defined data", but this does not
seem
to be it.

I change the usrdta field on the CHGSPLFA screen to something
recognizable,
then look at the return data from the API and I don't see the values I'm
entering.

Any advice?  or examples?

I feel sure that this can be done, I just don't know how.

TIA
