From version 6.2.79 Cobwebb supply a Folder Monitor program FMTXT2SPL which creates an IBM i Spooled File from a .TXT file. This Folder Monitor uses the *STD Monitor Type.

You may override the Printer file FMTXT2SPLP generated by FMTXT2SPL by specifying the following Parameters. If any of the parameters are left blank then the defaults will be used.

Please Note: There is no validity checking in the Folder Monitor Parameter Maintenance, as it has to handle any information for any parameter type, so you must make sure that you enter a valid override value for the CRTPRTF command.
