RE: RLSJOB message on QSYSOPR

Jim:

Just to be clear, I think Pete's suggestion was that the OVRMSGF should be 
within the "job submission utility CL program". It sounded like you were saying 
that you were executing OVRMSGF instead in the job that was displaying QSYSOPR.

You'd get very different results in those two cases. (You can get a very 
confusing image of QSYSOPR when a message file is overridden in the display 
job! Surprise a co-worker some day... :-) )
