From a CL program? What attributes are you interested in?

A job created a spool file in my outq.I need the spool file number,job number,job name,user ID that created the spool file

Okay - you need to either put a dataq on the outqueue or run an api.
But if you need to run a system command on it you can use the defaults

for example

RLSSPLF FILE(SOMEFILE) SPLNBR(*LAST)

I want to copy spool file in to data base file so i need the spool file number.

Re: Retrive the spool file atribute

If doing a copy from the same program all you need is the name of the spooled file.

Then as I stated above just use the defaults for the cpysplf command ...except for the spooled file name and spooled file number.

change spooled file number to *LAST
