Ken,

How about a brute-force-and-ignorance work around?  Create a dummy output
queue, and attach a data queue to it.  Create a CL program to monitor the
data queue from a never-ending job.  When the CL program gets a data queue
entry signifying that a spool file has landed on the dummy queue, have it do
a CHGSPLF to make the spool file tumble duplex and move it to the real
output queue for the Infoprint.  I realize that this is akin to using a
sledgehammer, whereas your data transformation program would be more like a
scalpel, but I've always found it easier to make sledgehammers work than
scalpels. <grin>
