I have a program that is run as a generic user (I can't control this). I this program produces a report, but I want the report to come out as the user running it (many different users run this). Is this possible? Do you understand what I am trying to ask?
I'm pretty sure you can't change the userid on a spooled file (though, there might be a way via MI? But, I'm sure it would require some hacking.)
What might work better is to copy the spooled file from one user to another, then delete the original. We currently do this with the SNDDST command -- though I understand that this capability may be going away in a future release?
Right now, it's easy to use SNDDST to send it to the same system, but to a different userid.
An alternative would be to use the spooled file APIs to copy the spooled file. I believe there are some utilities out there already that do this. You might try searching the web for utilities of this nature.
