Here's my 2 cents:

How about calling a CHGPRTF and moving the entry to the Fax queue after it's
spooled?

This way your program just creates a report, and based upon a user response you
move the file to the appropriate delivery vehicle.

We needed a quick & dirty method to view invoices on the screen and we already
had a invoice reprint option, so we just asked view/print on the request screen,
output to printer (on hold) and did a display/delete of the spool entry.  Sort 
of
like some DSPxxx commands operate.  The same idea could be used to
print/view/fax,etc.
