RE: Adding a line to a spool file

Also if you use an overlay or other fancy stuff, you can do it during the
OVRPRTF prior to the cpyf

Don is correct.. You will need to do an OVRPRTF command to set the
attributes of the spooled file to how you want them, otherwise it will just
use the defaults.

You should be able to do this with the ovrprtf prior to the cpyf...

Subject: Adding a line to a spool file

Hi!

I want to add a line at the beginning of an existing spool file.
Here's the
steps of what I've tried:

1) Create a work file with a data length = spool length + 1
2) CPYSPLF of my spool file to my work file with *FCFC
3) run a program that adds my new line at the beginning of the work file
4) OVRPRTF of my resulting work file to a QSYSPRT file
5) CPYF of my work file to QSYSPRT

This works fine except for one thing: my new spool file does not have the
same attributes that my original spool file (CPI, LPI, etc...)

Is there any way to create an empty spool file with the same
attributes that

my first spool file and then add data to this spool file?

I saw examples of doing that with user spaces... But is there
anything more
simple than using User Space to solve my problem?

Charles
