Re: How to Release all spool jobs

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In my experience, OpsNav is good for mass deletes, espec. since I can sort 
on the various columns. It is horrible for mass changes, however, as a 
separate dialog appears for each spooled file, not a single dialog with the 
attributes that are common to all seclections. The latter is the behavior 
of Windows Explorer. This is where WRKSPLF shines, with the 2 option and 
the command line.

What, besides delete, are the other commands that can be done efficiently 
over multiple spooled files?
