This isn't an answer to the question, but maybe it's something that'll twirl your beanie's propeller. http://www.martinvt.com/Code_Samples/Progress_Bar/progress_bar.html --------------------------------- Booth Martin http://www.martinvt.com --------------------------------- -------Original Message------- From: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Date: 08/03/04 14:47:44 To: midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: SNDPGMMSG to show message while something is running... Trying to use SNDPGMMSG in a CL program that gets run interactively to flash a message on the message line while the program is still running. As an example of what I'm attempting to accomplish, the CPYF command does this with message: Copying member or label CMMAST in CMMAST in DUROLIB. It appears on the message line as long as the CPYF command is running. But I haven't figured out how. Using SNDPGMMSG, I've tried: ToPgmQ( *Prv ) MsgType( *Info ) ToPgmQ( *Same ) MsgType( *Info ) ToPgmQ( *Prv ) MsgType( *Status ) ToPgmQ( *Same ) MsgType( *Status ) None of the other options look like solutions. Essentially, I'd like to do this in CL: SNDPGMMSG CPF9898 MsgDta('Program to match drawings is now running...') CALL MATCHDRWS ENDPGM I want the message to appear on the screen's message line as long as the MATCHDRWS program is running. tia, db -- This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
