Re: CPYSPLF - but don't know the spooled file number

Don,

There are other entries for the spooled file number parameter. These include *ANY, *ONLY, and *LAST.

HTH,

Nick

Subject: CPYSPLF - but don't know the spooled file number

Greetings,

I run a menu step which is a CLP I created and which CALLS an Outside_Print_Package_Program (CLP & RPG) for which I have no SOURCE CODE.

The program which loads up requests options, and may then be run interactively or in batch.

I would prefer this to run in batch all the time, but then I need to CPYSPLF the printer spooled output file and do some further processing. I want to automatically retrieve and fill in the required CPYSPLF command options, but I don't think I will know or have access to the "spooled file number" (unless I manually look it up) when the job is submitted to batch. Is that correct? Am I missing something simple here?

TIA
Don
