User Exit Middle

A USER EXIT MIDDLE program includes the library the program is in and a 20 character user parameter to be passed to the exit program. This program (phase EXTMID) will be run after the print engine copies the input spooled file to the input spool database. (This occurs in the CPYSPL phase, which creates the internal spool database using the CPYSPLF command.)
