Re: outq order of spooled files-result

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Solution was to close print1 then close print2, not letting the
ending of the program handle the close.

I still think it is wrong for the outq to not process in the order
of the file number (which is the order they are opened in).

Thanks to all suggestions.
Jim
