Gary,
        Attach a data queue to the OUTQ, run a simple CL pgm in
batch that monitors this data queue.  When a spooled file comes
*RDY, an entry goes into the data queue, and your pgm reads the
attributes of the spooled file.  If you'd like, I can email you a CL
code fragment that does most of the work...
