Re: Spool File Output Queue

1)  Convert the RPG/400 program into ILERPG, just because you can, if for
no other reason.
2)  Use the USROPN keyword on the printer file.  Use the OPEN and CLOSE
statements in your calc specs to open and close the printer file.  This
will generate separate spool files each time it is closed.
3)  Include the following in your ILERPG program:
H Bnddir('QC2LE')
...
C                   Eval      ErrorCPF=*blanks
C                   eval      ErrorFlag=system('ovrprtf myfile outq(' +
C                              %trim(outqlib) + '/' + %trim(outqname) +
C                              ')')
4)  Do the ovrprtf right before the OPEN statement.

Cool?

I have created an RPG/400 program that generates our Purchase Orders.

Depending on the state of the supplier the output needs to end up on any of
three printers.

In any given purchase order run we will generate purchase orders for all
three
printers.

I am happy to generate one spool file per purchase order (rather than
having all
the PO in one large spool file)

Question:
How can I control the output queue of my spool file(s) from within my
program.

Thanks for your help.
Gary.
