I need to determine the record size (characters per line) of a spool file,
so I can create a physical file of the correct length when I use the CPYSPLF
command.

I have tried using WRKSPLFA to a print file but it doesn't always have the
actual number of characters, only the maximum for the print file.

Thanks,

Albert York
