Using a Spool File

When Spool File is set to No, then a temporary file is created where the initialization and reset strings are inserted, and the file is sent to the print command or program.

Set the Spool File to Yes only if the print program creates its own temp file. This option is recommended when using the Program driver method and the print program creates its own temp file.

This option helps to reduce the creation of temp files, since the concurrent manager will not create a temp file when Spool File is set to Yes.

When Spool File is set to Yes, it is recommended that the:

Standard Input be set to No

Initialization and reset fields are null (i.e., fields are blank).

This option does not apply to the Subroutine driver method.
