Misc
Defaults
-
If you already have multiple
spooled files with HTML embedded in the data and do not wish to convert
all of the < and > characters to %%< and %%>, make sure
you have at least v7.33 and service pack st031202 installed. You can
then issue the following command to override the HTML conversions:
CRTDTAARA
DTAARA(QGPL/SPLCVTHTML) TYPE(*CHAR) VALUE(N)
Please bear in mind that
if any < or > characters exist in your spooled file data that is not
intended to be HTML this may corrupt your data.
- In older versions of SPLTOOL
if you created a text file using SPLTOOL it would eliminate the trainiling
blank lines from the document. For example, if you had 60 available
lines, and only 40 were used, the remaining 20 would not be included
in the document. The latest version of SPLTOOL includes these blank
lines.
If you want SPLTOOL to
behave like the older version and not include the blank lines use
the followingn command:
CRTDTAARA
DTAARA(QGPL/SPLINCBLNK) TYPE(*CHAR) VALUE(N)
This will create a data
area that will tell SPLTOOL to not include trailing blank lines in
a document conversion.
