Re: Easiest way for a program to find out the PRTTXT ("print text") of the job it's running in? -- MIDRANGE-L

As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

James,

Sorry, did not know the environment you were working in. That said, maybe
the only solution, short of using the API, would be a parm file, as Duane
wrote. Or maybe using an environment variable.

Would work great in a CL program. Not so great in RPG, PL/I, MI, or (as
is the case here) C.

A completely language-neutral answer is what I'm after (and why I'm
asking on the Midrange list instead of a language-specific one); the
question is whether or not there's a better language-neutral answer than
the QUSRJOBI call.
