Re: RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*EXCP) RMV(*YES) - not finding messages...

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Been there, done that, still waiting for that T-shirt!

It should be pretty safe to do - put the StartKey stuff at the earliest 
opportunity - remember to remove the message (by key) the message you 
just sent.

Then put the EndKey stuff and loop at the very end.

Good luck!
