There is always a way with the AS400.  Take this from a former S36'er whose mind
is sufficiently boggled by the extensive AS400 system.
In the QUSRTOOL library (pre V3r2) there is a utility that allows you to do the
WRKSPLF command and output it to *OUTFILE then read the file in a CL program a
record at a time, Use 2 more CMDs previously posted here from I think David
Nettles named GETSPLF and PUTSPLF.  Connect it all up and you will be able to
keep the previous days spoolfiles in another accessable file and restore them
should they be inadvertently deleted.
