procedure

has possible values of COPYPRT or TRANSLATE. Selecting

 

COPYPRT indicates that the SSP COPYPRT procedure will

 

be executed and that the print report(s) will be

 

extracted from the AS/400 print spool prior to

 

translation into a workstation print format. Selecting

 

TRANSLATE specifies that an existing COPYPRT file will

 

be translated into the workstation print format.

spool name

is the spool name (id) of the print report(s) on the

 

AS/400 print spool. Valid entries are the spool id (in

 

the form SPxxxx), the forms type to be extracted (in

 

the form Fxxxx), or ALL to extract all inactive print

 

spool items. Examine the COPYPRT procedure in the

 

manual System Reference for the AS/400 Environment for

 

more information on these entries.

file member ETOA1 is provided on the AS/400

COMPILE procedures for more information on creating new

 

translation table files. The default is ETOA1.

qualifier

copied AS/400 spool items after the print reports have

 

been copied. RELEASE specifies that the copied print

 

reports are released for printing and will print at the

print spool items are no longer needed and are to be

 

deleted from the print spool. If omitted, no action

 

will be taken on the spool item.
