Re: Retrieving a spool file number

You need to specify a printer data structure name on the printer
 f spec and then define the data structure thus:

 * Printer Data Structure:                                  
d PrinterDS       ds                                        
d  FileName                     10    Overlay(PrinterDS:83) 
d  SpoolNumber                   4b 0 Overlay(PrinterDS:123)

   Is there a way to retrieve the spool file number from a spool file
at the
   time it is created? 
   I need to retrieve the user name and job number from the program
status
   data structure but
   also need the spool file number to use a parameters to pass to
another
   program.
    
   I looked in the archives but didn't find anything on this.
    
   Thanks in advance.
