RE: Workstation Data Areas

[Marc Chartrand <MarcC@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry to be confusing, 
 we have locked the data areas (we are a pure TCP/IP environment and are
trying to lock the IP address of the workstations to get consistent
workstation IDs) and we control the data areas so that they point to a
unique output queue. 

 We have then associated this output queue to a data queue which we monitor
using straight RPG programming. This program is responsible for moving /
removing / sending jobs that are ready to different queues that are
associated with printers.

Data Queues or Data Areas? Maybe you're using data queues(and APIs) with
the 3rd party
software you purchased for spool file exports from the 400 to the PCs? Is
this
the case?
