Am I missing this, but, in RDP, is there a way to search a spool file for a text string. Ideally, in RDP, I would like to be able to look at a source member and pull up the spool file from the latest compile like you can do in SEU

Re: Searching spool files in RDP
Have you tried using the iSphere add-on for RDi and it's spooled files option? Works much better (in my opinion) than the one that comes with RDi.
iSphere is free, available here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/isphere/

There's very few benefits to a compile listing in RDi - the only thing they're good for is producing compile errors and they come up as part of the compile anyway. There are people who set the compile option to not generate a listing off entirely. In my case, I use a compile listing when there's an error because of the change management package I use - but they provide an easy way to bring up the listing from the compile that makes it almost as simple as the standard RSE process.

RDi - or more specifically Remote System Explorer (RSE) has the cross reference built real time as you're coding - you don't need to refer to a compile listing. I keep mine open all the time as I code - it's updated immediately so it's always current.
