Re: 5219/3812 *M36/iSeries outq issue

Interesting.  I noticed that too and checked qpsplprt/qsys as well.  I
changed both qsysprt/qsys and qpsplprt/qsys to handle 198 wide, 66 long, 60
overflow, and 16.7 cpi to no avail.  I regenerated the reports and still get
the error.

I suspect that there are some s36 control codes embedded in the report that
the iSeries cannot handle.

What do you think?

Jerry

PS:  I reviewed the wrkm36cfg per Paul T. and found it to be ok.
