Re: Max spool entries 10,000 per JOB??

[Pete Massiello <pmassiello@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Each spool file for a job has a number, so that if you create two spool files
from Job A with a File name of QSYSPRT, you will see them as File Number 1 & 2,
when you do a WRKSPLF, and hit F11 to see the 3rd screen.  My quess, is that the
file number is only defined as 4 bytes, there fore it only goes to 9999.
