Mike,

This falls into the 'anything like this' category.  I'm not familiar
with any methodology for adding user-defined options to the WRKOUTQ
screen.

However, if you go into output queues and spool files through Operations
Navigator, you can drag a spool file to the desktop and it will show up
as an ASCII text file on your PC.  Sounds like this is the functionality
your boss is looking for.
