Re: Attaching a dataQ to an outq does not write user data

The SPLA0100 data should include the  USERDATA  but I believe you have to
use the "QUSRSPLA"  API .
Below is some sample code that we are using to get this information .

Declarations


DCL  &SplInfo     *CHAR 2000
DCL  &InfoLen     *CHAR    4
DCL  &QualJob     *CHAR   26
DCL  &IntJob      *CHAR   16
DCL  &IntSplID    *CHAR   16

code

CALL PGM(QRCVDTAQ) PARM(&Q &LIB &LEN &DATA &WAIT)


/*        A  LENGTH OF 0 (&LEN) INDICATES NO DATAQ WAS RETREIVED */

IF COND(&LEN *GT 0) THEN(DO)
/*                                                              */
/*           QUSRSPLA WILL RETRIEVE OTHER ATTRIBUTES FROM THE   */
/*           SPOOL FILE (SPECIFICALLY THE USERDATA AREA WHICH   */
/*           CONTAINS THE UNIVERSITY EMAIL ADDRESS TO ROUTE THE */
/*           REPORT TO .                                        */

CHGVAR (&JOBNAME) VALUE(%SST(&DATA 13 10))
CHGVAR (&USER)    VALUE(%SST(&DATA 23 10))
CHGVAR (&JOBN)    VALUE(%SST(&DATA 33 6))
CHGVAR (&SPLNAME) VALUE(%SST(&DATA 39 10))
CHGVAR (&SPLNBRCHR) VALUE(%SST(&DATA 49 4))
CHGVAR (&SPLNBR) VALUE(%BIN(&SPLNBRCHR))
CHGVAR  &QUALJOB VALUE(&JOBNAME *CAT &USER *CAT &JOBN)
CALL       PGM(QUSRSPLA) PARM(&SPLINFO &INFOLEN +

          &SPLNAME &SPLNBRCHR)

CMDLBL(REPEAT2))
/*  ABOVE MONMSG WILL HANDLE CASES WHERE THE JOB SPOOL FILE      */

We are trying to streamline our print production. We have attached a dataq
to many of our default outq and then reading the outq to determine if the
user want the output either printed or e-mailed as a PDF to them.   The
only problem is that the dataq only gets populated with the information
from spla0100 which does not have the the user data field.  Is there any
way to make the dataQ be populated with information from SPLA0200???
