I noticed something interesting today. I wrote a simple program that uses API's QSYGETPH and QWTSEP to swap to another users profile. However, whenever a spool file is created from this job after "the swap" it ends up being associated with a QPRTJOB job instead of the interactive job in which it was created. This makes it difficult, within a program, to create a Spoolfile and then access it for further processing. For example. I have a program that creates a profile listing (DSPUSRPRF XXX *PRINT) and then sends the listing it to someone. The program creates the Spoolfile QPUSRPRF, which is then processed like this: SNDNETSPLF FILE(QPUSRPRF) JOB(*) SPLNBR(*LAST) Specifying ' * ' for JOB ..... Well since that the Spoolfile isn't associated with JOB(*) ... It is associated with that other job named QPRTJOB which was created under the "swapped to" user ID, the SNDNETSPLF command fails because it can't find the file. I can't think of an easy way to handle this. Has anyone written any code to handle this situation? It would probably be code written for a server process that accepts incoming requests from another user and then swaps to that user to run.... Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanx!
