Hi,

is there a way to get the message contained in a message file?
The DSPMSGD command can only print (no outfile) and I didn't find an API
doing it.

Any idea?

Damien,

The Retrieve Message (QMHRTVM) API would do the trick.

Go to http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/QB3AMN01/CCONTENTS
for V4R2 or
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/QB3AMN02/CCONTENTS for
V4R3

or RTVMSG command

The api QMHRTVM will retrieve message descriptions. An example of this api
can be found at

http://earth.vol.com/~craigr//jcrcmd2.html Download the ANZPRTFF (Analyze
Print File Layout) command..

I use it when printing a representational layout of a print file to retrieve
the MSGCON values. This way I show the actual message text in the layout.

Hi,
Thank you for your answer,
but my problem is that I don't know the MSGIDs of the messages in the MSGF,
I want to get the list of the MSGIDs contained in the MSGF.

Thank you
Damien

You can display them to a spooled file with DSPMSGF (I think this is
the command).

Or, I have a utility named Scan MEssage File (SCNMSGF) that can be
downloaded at my website that will let you search for message IDs by
typing in search text. It's slick and a time saver. Can be found at:

You can use the optional "retrieve option" parameter of QMHRTVM to do
this. On the first call to QMHRTVM set retrieve option to *FIRST--it
will return the first msgid; then set it to *NEXT on subsequent calls
to QMHRTVM to loop thru all msgid's.

Dave,
Thank you for your answers, I didn't read completly the QMHRTVM
specification the first time.
