Re: Find String Spool Files

Jerry

Generally I find that the last setting I used is what is kept around for the next time - probably in the object associated with my profile and PDM. Now WDSC, etc., use that command as they want to - I'm not sure why the search has the *EVENTF parameter, since I think that has to do with getting the error listing back to WDSC. Nonetheless -

Now I remember a time when it seemed those QPUOPRTF spooled files were not automatically deleted - they always are now, so I'm not sure when that changed - long before version 7, IIRC. So it surprised me that this behavior has arisen for you.

I'm sure I've not helped much, my friend!

More on this. I finally thought to look at the iSeries Commands Log tab.
In there it had:

FNDSTRPDM STRING(@urgaroi) FILE(ADSGL200/QS36SRC) MBR(*ALL) OPTION(*NONE)
COL(1 *RCDLEN) CASE(*IGNORE) PRTRCDS(*ALL *CHAR) PARM(*EVENTF)

Now where did that PRTRCDS setting come from? The default (on our system,
anyway) is *No *None. I searched the preferences again and I could not find
anything that seemed like it would affect this setting.

WDSC 7. Whenever I perform a "Find String." against a source PF, it

creates

a spool file for printer QPUOPRTF. Option '25' in PDM will do the same
thing - if I have the "Print Records" option set to 'Y'.

Jerry, I couldn't find any settings pertaining to this in RDPi. I don't
have WDSC handy so can't help with that. If I get a chance I'll try to
fire it up when I get home and take a peek.
