RE: Can a Command Validity Check program be an RPG ILE program

OK, I put the QMHSNDPM API in and now the command stops.

But I may have made in invalid assumption

I thought that if I had pressed F4 on the command and the validity program
found an error that the command would stay prompted and display the error
msg.
Mine returns back to a command line and displays the error message.

I wanted a way to reverse image the field where the error was found and keep
the command up on the screen.
Sort of like when Restricted values are defined in the Command and they
enter an invalid value.

Was I expecting too much?
The way it works now, I am just moving my validity checking from the Command
Processing program to a Validity checking program.
What do I gain by using the validity checking program??


Thanks

John

Use the QMHSNDPM API.

Can a Command Validity Check program be an RPG ILE program



If yes, how is the SNDPGMMSG supposed to be handled in the RPG?



In my test I use QCMDEXEC to execute a SNDPGMMSG *ESCAPE parms and it runs
right through and continues on processing the command



I am just now trying to learn this process so bear with me if this is a
stupid question J.





Thanks



John
