Deleting an Object

In general, if you delete an object from the spool file, only the object itself is deleted, not its possible references in other objects.

Example:

If you delete a logical printer profile from the spool file, possible references of this printer profile in user profiles are not deleted. If you want to also delete the printer profile in some or all referenced user profiles, you need to modify the user profile(s) involved accordingly.

Use the Cross-Reference Function 20 (Information section) to find out in which objects a given object is referenced.

This section covers the following topics:

User Profile - Function 31.1
Logical Printer - Function 31.2
Allocation Table - Function 31.3
Printer - Function 31.4
Header Page - Function 31.5
Applications - Function 31.6
Cluster - Function 31.7
NTCC Table - Function 31.8
Calendar - Function 31.9
Message Header - Function 31.A
