I've never really run across this before because I don't often copy raw
data to QSYSPRT this way. I wanted an easy way to mock up data for a
spooled file (which would then get reformatted by magical forms
software). Seemed easy enough - edit a source file, then copy it to a
DB file defined with RCDLEN using *CVTSRC, then copy that DB file to
QSYSPRT. And it all worked fine, except that for some reason the
spooled file starts at line 6.
I am baffled. I looked at every parameter on the CPYF and on OVRPRTF,
but I couldn't come up with a reason. I can copy the spooled file back
to a database file using *FCFC or *PRTCTL and play with the values, but
that's one thing I was specifically trying to avoid.
All I want is the first line of the database file to print on page 1,
line 1 of the spooled file. Anybody ever run into this?
Thanks!
