Hi all:
I have a doubt. Do you know how could I change the date of a file
into the rdr. This is because the system erases the rdr according with the
date of creation of them. Is possible do it with an assembler program?
Thanks in advance,

If anyone has a program to do this, I would like to receive a copy, too.

The SFBLOK (SPOOL File Block) does reside in CP storage, and you can change the creation date and time (offsets '40'x and '48'x respectively) but the SPLINKs (SPOOL Page Buffer Linkage Block) resides on disk. Actually, if you had a minidisk that overlapped VM SPOOL space, then you could change the data in the SPOOL file. Both are tricky tasks. This is not MS-DOS.
