Problem with SBMJOB (RPG III) -- RPG400-L

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ]

Hi all!



I have a Report program which currently runs interactively. The program
accepts a list of Items from the User, writes the list to a work file in
Qtemp. This workfile is used in 2 RPG programs which build various workfiles
(also in QTEMP) and then a Report printing program uses the work files to
generate the report.

I would like to do the following:

1. Create the Qtemp work file containing Item List (henceforth refered as
Driving File).

2. Submit the other programs in Batch mode.

My problem is that will the Qtemp of my interactive job pass on to the Qtemp
of my Batch job? Will the programs in batch mode find the Driving File object?


Regards,

Hrishikesh Kotwal
