Can CometEx direct output to either terminal or a SPL output?

under the old Qtility, I could pipe the output of certain options like file checking to either the terminal or a SPL output

this weekend I may be running some file re-builds and file verifies and wanted to pipe the output to SPL so I don't accidentally lose record counts.

I believe that errors will appear in a SPL file, but the counts come up in a popup window.

I'd like to "get into the 21st century" with CometEx but I really need the hard copy.

It's annoying to have to do the re-build, but I've got 3 large files with over 1 million rows and I believe that the maximum number of bad keys is under 10. But I've got to get rid of the bad links before I try to re-format the 3 files to accommodate Serial Numbers that are twice as large as regular satellite receivers. I was testing my re-format programs and each one died upon hitting the first bad sector.

The final "go-live" will be what people call "the Big Bang"... I'll have 48 hours over some weekend to re-format the files, install 200-300 programs and check out that we can write orders on Monday. the only way to make this happen is to get rid of the bad links, which I can do now.

Thanx

P.S. if I'm quick enough, we may be able to have 72 hours on the Labour day weekend in September... but testing the order entry could be a stumbling block

P.P.S. today's Latin word.... stumbling block.... SCANDALUM :)
