Re: Work with Spooled Files

That is true, Scott. Thanks for mentioning it.

I don't mind people using them for one-offs at all for any of the software
I have offered. Our trial keys are good for 10 days at a time and sent
automatically from our website to you via email (using MAILTOOL of course!)
and as long as you're not requesting them every 10 days for months I have
no problem.

This sounds like possibly an ongoing project, though. I know the hardest
thing for most is the requisition process and that's a big factor for
most. But at the prices I offer ($280 a year) hopefully it would be pretty
easy to get approval for...

Others should keep in mind that Brad is open to a using a trial for his
product for one off needs. Not many software vendors would make that offer.

Dave - I really suggest taking Brad up on his offer. It may be the
easiest way. Brad is an expert on spool files.

Getting the PTB to purchase software can be time consuming and
frustrating. Easier for me to write it -- which I have already completed.
My new command supports a better search/selection process than what I've
found natively (or via CoolSpool -- which we already have) and currently
can return up to 60 spooled file attributes (with the ability to easily
add more). It also supports *NEXT functionality for retrieving subsequent
entries when more than one spooled file entry meets selection criteria. It
is well suited to my needs and does not require either parsing printed
output nor reading a database file. It can also be called either via the
command interface from CL or as a simple API from high-level languages.

Sincerely,

Dave Clark
