Copies in Query for iSeries reports: Type a number from 1 through 255 to indicate the number of copies of the report that you want printed. If you leave this prompt blank, the value specified in the printer device file (named QPQUPRFIL) used by Query determines the number of copies to be printed.

Hold in Query for iSeries reports: Type a Y or N to indicate whether your report is to be printed now, or is to be held and printed at a later time. The value in this prompt, however, is ignored if the value specified or assumed in the Spool the output prompt is N. If you leave this prompt blank, the value specified in the printer device file used by this printer determines whether the report is to be held or not.

If you specified that the output for your query is to be spooled when your query is run, your report is created as a spooled printer file and sent to an output queue. You can specify either that the spooled file be printed as soon as it can be scheduled, or that it be held on the output queue until it is released for printing at a later time.

Y=Yes

The output for your report is to be held as a spooled printer file on an output queue. The report is not printed until the spooled file is released for printing at a later time.

N=No

The output for your report is not held; it is printed as soon as it can be scheduled.
