Hi, Gerald:In the scenario below, I use the system provided printer file QSYSPRT, but in your case, you might be using QPRINT or some other non-IBM supplied printer file. (You should be able to tell based on the name of the spool file in question.)
1. create a physical file with record length 133, as in: CRTPF yourlib/PRT133 RCDLEN(133) MAXMBRS(*NOMAX) (Note: you could also specify MAXMBRS(3) or whatever value you need.) 2. add a member to it, such as: ADDPFM yourlib/PRT133 QSYSPRT(Note: I use QSYSPRT as an example only -- your spool file name may be different.)
3. copy the spool file in question into the physical file member, with forms control characters in column 1:
CPYSPLF FILE(QSYSPRT) TOFILE(yourlib/PRT133) JOB(123456/username/jobname) +
midrange.com
TOMBR(QSYSPRT) CTLCHAR(*FCFC)
(Note: it is important to specify CTLCHAR *FCFC to preserve spacing and
pagination.)
4. create a duplicate of QSYSPRT *FILE PRTF in QSYS into another library:
CRTDUPOBJ OBJ(QSYSPRT) FROMLIB(QSYS) OBJTYPE(*FILE) TOLIB(yourlib)
5. change yourlib/QSYSPRT to specify CTLCHAR(*FCFC)
CHGPRTF FILE(yourlib/QSYSPRT) CTLCHAR(*FCFC)
6. submit a job to run as the user who you want to "own" the spool file,
e.g.:
SBMJOB CMD(CPYF FROMFILE(yourlib/PRT133) TOFILE(yourlib/QSYSPRT) +
FROMMBR(QSYSPRT) MBROPT(*ADD)) JOB(PRTSPLF) USER(otheruser)
(Note: ensure that "otheruser" has authority to "yourlib" and the
QSYSPRT *FILE in yourlib.)
That should do it... Regards, Mark S. Waterbury----- Original Message -----

Without resorting to SNADS, is there a way to send spool files to another user on the same (or a different system)? I see in iSeries navigator that it offers two options, one to send via TCP (which doesn't offer a way to send it to a specific user id) and two, send via SNA. I'm not looking to email or pdf the spool file. I just want a method like option 1 that allows me to specify a user id and system name to send the spool file to. I have a user who had to rerun a job and the spool files are on her outq and will remain there for almost a year. Hence the reason she would like them sent to the user who should have originally generated them.
