RE: SPOOLED_FILE_DATA table function

I am aware of the WSCST but this is a package generated spoolfile so adding an OVRPRTF is not an option.

Thanks anyhow.

John,

(replying again with text only for better formatting.)

It is not a separate command. You just use CPYSPLF like this:

CPYSPLF FILE(SPOOLFILE) TOFILE(*TOSTMF) + TOSTMF('/your/IFS/directory/spoolfile.pdf') WSCST(*PDF) You can also avoid this extra step and issue an OVRSPLF like this, before calling the program that produces the spool file, e.g.:

OVRPRTF FILE(splfname) + TOSTMF('/your/IFS/directory/spoolfile.pdf') +
WSCST(*PDF)

This directly creates the PDF output file and does not leave a spool file in any *OUTQ.

Hope that helps,

Mark S. Waterbury

So TS1 has a function that will copy a spoolfile from an outq and generate a .pdf in the IFS? Do you know the command because I am unaware of it.
