1. Create Demo Spool Entry

If you want to study the Auto Forms Control sample delivered with this program, this option will create a spool entry in a format which could have been the output from a common AS/400 application.

Create Demo Spooled File SMP001D

This program will print a demo spooled file in the APF3812/AFC_INPUT1 outq. The printout is intended for being merged with the IF400DEMO overlay from the file-set SAMPLE.

If the AUTO_FORM subsystem is started, the merge operation is carried out automatically by Auto Forms Control.

Output from the merge operation will be placed in the APF3812/AFC_OUT1 outq, from where it can be printed on a HPIII or similar PCL5 printer.

Before the AUTO_FORM subsystem is started for the first time, you must call the APF3812/AFCINSTALL program. The subsystem is then started with this command: STRSBS APF3812/AUTO_FORM

Press Enter to create the printout

F3=Exit F12=Cancel

You can create the same spool entry several times, which gives you the possibility to experiment with different attributes for the spool entries (SAVE=*YES/*NO, formtype change etc.)
