Look into file 527 on the CBT tape. There is a callable sub-program that allows a COBOL (or any other language) program to change a f SYSOUT file characteristics. Close the report file in the program, change what you want changed, then open the report file. This creates a separate SYSOUT each time. There may be example programs in file 529 to use this sub-progarm.
