Re: Looking for advice.

Scott,

Back in the "early days" when the system did not handle canceling inactive jobs,
we wrote a homegrown app to do this. It basically ran from an AUTOSTART job and
captured active users for QINTER twice in a 30 minute interval. It did this via 
a
WRKACTJOB for QINTER and a CPYSPLF to a file for "editing". Not do drone on 
here,
but we used this to kill a job by workstation BUT it did include the User Name
AND job #, etc. so you could use a smiliar method to do what you want !
