  • Spool file to be emailed

    Here's my situation.

    I am generating output in spool file format, and it needs to be emailed to multiple users.

    Aside from doing a CPYSPLF to a flat file then doing a CPYTOPCD to the IFS, is there simple method for emailing out a spool file?

    Thanks

    Wow! thats a loaded question
    I would convert it to .pdf then email it out from there.


    or



    If these users are *LOCAL I would just create a webpage --or-- share a folder on the
    IFS and "place" one document there to be viewed by multiple people. Then just create
    local shares on their PC's.

    there is a great freeware tool provided by IBM that lets you email "stuff"


    search for MMAIL

    Let me know if you need more.

        MMAIL is a set of subprocedures that can be used within any HLL program to generate and send a MIME message through SMTP.

        Please go back to the website again and search for MMAIL.

          The conversion works great.

          I do however have 1 issue. I need to send a spool file that is greater than 132 characters wide. The convert to .PDF is cutting off anything out beyond 132. Any suggestions?
