 Modify ca-spool print datastream on print request
I would like to know how to intercept a users request to print a ca-spool file, and do a acf2 lookup on their logon id and replace a field in the print data stream with that of a field on their acf2 record. Thank you in advance.

Software/Hardware used:
IBM MF, ca-spool and ca-acf2

There might not be many other CA Spool users here. Since CA Spool is a 3rd-party mainframe product, you should get information first from their Support group. They know what works and what won’t work better than anyone. They especially know how to do it without potentially disturbing unrelated spooling activities. If their Support is not helpful or unresponsive, you should consider posting details in the CA community forums, and perhaps even back here. (You might also post if their Support is good.) — Tom
