Selects fields and assigns values to the fields.

By default, the Job name (NJHGJNAM) field is assigned the FILENAME attribute. This causes the Barr Spool port to extract the Windows file name and insert it in the field. If the file name is longer than the field will accept, the name will be truncated to fit. The FILENAME value is case sensitive, so you must use all uppercase letters for the value to work properly.

You can specify NDHGNAME=FILENAME or NJHGJNAM=FILENAME to store the document name as either the data set or job name. This change is only effective during file configuration.

If you send a file that contains a header field, the settings within that header will be applied, ignoring the Barr Spool port settings. This will usually occur with files originally spooled using Barr DOS products or previously archived BARR/SPOOL jobs.
