Well, I've been touting a product that does exactly this for the last several
months, but nobody has contacted the principals regarding it.  I have no
financial interest in the company, yet they have a product that will direct
OUTFILES to multiple users across both AS/400 and ES/9000 systems.  The
company is called Queue Magic, and you can contact them either through
Mike.Mccormack@smtpgwy.springs.com or at 803/286-3679.  It works well for us,
and it's GREAT to be able to direct huge AS/400 output to the 3900 on the
ES/9K...
