Deleting a batch job by its name

[Alon Jacob]

Hi all
How can I delete a batch job only by its name and not number?
Assuming this is done from a script which I can onky give the job's name and the number is random.

Thanks.

You'll need to do some scripting (help lex f$getq).

Enclosed all the elements you need (extracted from a bigger script)

In dcl.openvms.org I once submitted my abojob.com. I'm not sure if it is still o.k. there, the actual one is at
http://wwwvms.mppmu.mpg.de/vms$common/com/abojob.com

and can be used as:
@ABOJOB job_name [user [queue]]

Problem solved by scripting.
