Good point - I don't think Barbara meant to suggest that, however. I know that whenever I suggest someone create their own message description, creating the message file is assumed.

I would never add messages to QCPFMSG because that gets replaced when you upgrade the operating system.

You need to create your own message file and then use that.

QCPFMSG has a considerable amount of messages. Finding something to

Is there any particular grouping of messages (similar IDs) documented somewhere?

At the moment, I'm searching for a message to properly output %status back to the user in IBM fashion. ;-) Any hints which to use?

What do you want the message to say?

Have you considered creating your own messages? That way, the message would say exactly what you want it to say.
