RE: Sending a user results of a query

Rick,

Below is a sample program that reads a data q and processes the spool files
from it.   CPYTOIMPF copies a PF to an import file which can be a comma
delimited file.  It, and its cousin CPYFRMIMPF, make it very easy to
transfer data back and forth between different systems.

     h dftactgrp(*no)
     h actgrp(*new)
     h bnddir('MRLBIND')
     h option(*srcstmt : *noshowcpy : *nodebugio)

      *
      * Calls QRCVDTAQ for a data queue associated with a spool file.
      * The wait time is negative so it always waits for an entry.

      * Parameters
