CLROUTQ3        CLEAR OUTPUT QUEUE 3                   TAASPPO

The Clear  Output Queue 3  command clears  selected spooled files  from
an output  queue.  Spooled files may be  deleted based on a combination
of  selection  criteria  such  as job,  user,  form  type,  status, and
priority.  At least  one selection type must  be made.  A spooled  file
must satisfy  all selection  types specified to  be deleted.   A 'check
option'  exists to allow  a determination of which  spooled files would
be deleted.

You must have *JOBCTL special authority to use CLROUTQ3.

A typical command would be:

             CLROUTQ3  OUTQ(xxx) FILE(fff)

All spooled files on  the output queue  for the specified spooled  file
name would be deleted.   A message for each  spooled file deleted would
appear.

Multiple selection criteria may be used such as:

             CLROUTQ3  OUTQ(xxx) JOB(ABC*) USER(uuu)

Any  spooled file in  a job beginning  with ABC and  the specified user
would be deleted.
