Thanks to all for the suggestions. I didn't make myself clear. I don't
care if the compile goes to an outq. I would like to know how to
redirect it so that anyone compiling in RSE would go to a non-printer
attached outq. I don't want to have to redirect each time or to
remember to prompt and change the printer outq. My compiles in batch go
to my own outq and I can redirect to a printer if I desire. (Rare)

Hi Bill,

WDSC uses native System i user profile and spooling functionality. Each RSE user would have her compile listings go to the OUTQ specified in her user profile. If you want to set up RSE to override that behaviour you might look at the connection properties, subsystems tab.

In RSE, right click on your machine name (connection)
Properties
Subsystems (left side)
iSeries Commands (right side)

There is a place you can put an initial command. You can write a command that will call a CL program to test the user profile and CHGJOB OUTQ() accordingly. This would be a good plan if you feel there are several things about the System i environment you want to set. Another thought is to put in OVRPRTF *PRTF OUTQ(nnn) or HOLD(*YES).

Another thought is to call the user's initial program, which might be an issue if it wants to bring up a menu. You can overcome that problem by making a tiny change to the initial program. Test (RTVJOBA TYPE()) if the initial program is running in batch or interactively. If interactively, do everything. If batch, skip the menu.
