Thank you all:

I extracted the DISPLAY_JOBS.COM section from the HP link as per Peter's
suggestion, and it worked 99.9%. For some reason, the generated submit
statements missed (in all cases) the closing quotation marks following the
/AFTER="dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm.ss" parameter and the /NAME="<job name>"
parameter.

It took me a while (because the number of quotes in the routine looked
fine), but eventually found that the problem goes away if you keep the
F$GETQUI command all on a single line (is this a bug)?

For example,
    Change:

    $ SAY " /NAME = ''F$GETQUI("DISPLAY_JOB", -

    "JOB_NAME",, FLAGS )' -"

    To

    $ SAY " /NAME = ''F$GETQUI("DISPLAY_JOB", "JOB_NAME",, FLAGS )' -"

I suspect I can use the FIXQUE.COM routine that was sent to me to regenerate
all the print jobs. We're moving all our storage to new storage; and
therefore, I need to resubmit all the print and batch jobs from the old
units to the new drives. I have a couple hundreds jobs to do this for.

Yours truly,
Fred.
