RE: Getting Spool File Information

Mike,

Not without using a lot of APIs. Don't you have SPLTOOL installed on this
site? There is a command called SPLATT (Spooled File Attributes) in SPLTOOL
that will allow you to build a PF filled with spooled file information. You
just give it the information you know (you can use wildcards and *ALL for
most) and it then creates a PF, you read through it, and bingo, you have all
the information you need for each specific spooled file.

Subject: Getting Spool File Information


Is there a way to get the unique identifier for a spool file with only
knowing the spool file name and assuming there is only one copy
in the OUTQ?
(The Job Name, Job User, Job Number and File Number.) We run a
report on one
day then we want to run another program to split out this vendor created
report into multiple reports a couple days later. This is a payroll report
so it has to be sent out on payday. I haven't seem much with the search
terms I used.
