Re: OVRPRTF OVRSCOPE(*JOB)

I think both of you are saying the same thing.

Example: The same RPG program prints either a weekly summary or
monthly summary. Same report, the timeframe included is different and
the number of copies needed is different.

The CL wrapper looks at which is requested and sets the number of
copies via OVRPRTF. Since the user specified either *WEEKLY or
*MONTHLY, the user, in effect, determined the number of copies.

Come down from the ivory tower Chuck!  :)

I've never had (non-IT) users issuing OVRPRTF...

But I've put them in lots of programs.  Examples, changing the user
data that's set on the spool, or even setting the COPIES parameter
based on a prompt screen.
