RE: Using a display file in a batch environment

["Erickson, Jon" <JonErickson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Before the program is submitted, you can over ride the display file to a
"Unused" workstation, e.g. OVRDSPF(DISPLAYFILE) DEV(UNUSEDWS).  Then the
program will run as if interactive.  NOTE: This device cannot be allocated,
not even a sign-on.

                Kent, I know how to do a user control open on the display
file, my
                problem, is that in its processing this program load records
into a
                display file and I believe in order to do this the file
would have to
                be opened.  Back to the same problem.

                There is
                >some char. in the F spec of the display (in the RPG pgm)
which you
                can set to
                >control the open process. (Can't remember right now, did it
a couple
                of years
                >ago). It's somewhere in the DDS manual.
