Well, let's see...

You would need to know which OUTQ to restore to and who to own it.  The
rest of the stuff I think is already available in the current descriptions
or contents.

Now, we have a sysval that describes whom the default owner is as I recall
for when a object is restored and there's a lack of owner or security
issue or when a user profile is removed and you want to assign the owned
objects to a DFTOWN....

SO, what's the problem?

SO, why not RSTSPLF file(xxxx)  outq(xxx) job(123.abc.xyz) splnbr(32767)
RSTTOQ(to_outq) SPLFOWN(*OLD/*SYSVAL/THEMADPGMR)

BY DEFINITION:  the system would have to assign it a new job ID and
SPLF#...  Further, by definition, the SAVSPLF object encapsulation would
include any overlays, sigs, graphics, etc., that used.  And, the splf data
stream type would be the same as the original...ie, you couldn't save a
AFP and restore it as a SCS...(although technically, you probably could).

Frankly, I'm surprised Al doesn't have a tool that does something like
this.  Al?  I'm not up to the latest on tools...feel free to fill in the
blanks...  I used to know all this spool data stream stuff back several
years ago when I had to ripappart fax/400....but it's been several years.

Right now I've got 3 dialects of linux, 2 dialects of unix, 2 dialects of
Windows Server and OS/400 running amuck vying for a timeslice...so pardon
the parity errors...:)   ...and Oracle's in there somewhere as well...!
