If you could gain access to @.IN.HPSPOOL, the contents of the job was
there. Then you would have to recreate the job card. That is the MPE
solution.
I think that if you're going to be doing this type of processing, then
maybe using 3rd party software is the better solution. At least then doing
tasks like this would be easier.

lHere's and update to the script I just wrote, courtesy of Jeff Vance!
(thanks, Jeff!)
I wrote (in the script):
>> # re-create the JOB statement
>>
>> showjob #J!res_job > showjobf
>>
>> !hpfile entry_point = showjob < showjobf
And Jeff sez:
> You can replace the above 2 statements and the entire

> ";inpri=" + jinfo("J!res_job","inpri")
> echo ![res_new_rec] > newfile
Pretty cool! A clever programmer could even include the outclass priority
and number of copies, and allow for hipri jobs!
Note the 6.0 PP1 disclaimer, though! I've held DenKor on 5.5 PP7 (until
6.5 PP1), so we don't have these features, yet, and I coded accordingly!
Thanks again, Jeff.
