I haven’t gone down the road of using a “message file”.  I simply defined a data area in the sign-on DDS.  This sign-on screen can be updated by changing the data area, without having to recompile the sign-on DDS.

Subject: How to Dynamically Update Sign On Screen with use of Message File Field

 

In reference to the article:

 

http://www.rpgenerationx.com/articles/dgeorge1.html

 

I have been testing the above procedure and can not get it to function correctly.   I have placed Message Fields on a Test Sign On Screen that was copied from QDSIGNON.  The fields reference Message Descriptions in a Message File.  Per the referenced article, the goal is to be able to dynamically change the Message Descriptions in the Message File and have then reflect on the Sign On Screen WITHOUT having to recompile the DSPF or end and start the QINTER subsystem.

 

I am finding the changes will not take place unless I recompile the DSPF and restart QINTER.

 

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong ?
