RE: deleting a message in log

Suppose you have the following code:

        DLTF       dk1234         
        MONMSG     MSGID(cpf2105) 

You want to delete the file if it exists, but if it doesn't exist you don't
care, so you use a monitor message to ignore the exception. However, you now
have an unwanted severity 40 message in your job log like this:

40    06/10/99   09:22:51   QLIDLOBJ       QSYS        03CD     ABC   
  Message . . . . :   Object DK1234 in *LIBL type *FILE not found.    

To get rid of this message you can make the following change:

        DLTF       dk1234                                    
        MONMSG     MSGID(cpf2105) EXEC(RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*excp))

By receiving the message from the program message queue you also remove it
(the default). This prevents it from appearing in the job log.

I hope this answers your question. If not maybe you could post a slightly
longer and more explicit version?

Is it possible to delete a particular message available in job log messages
in system? If so, how to do it?
