Hi Rob, 
        You could use the API QMHSNDPM to send a program message. 
I believe You could get the desired result even with QCMDEXC if you 
specify the parameter value TOPGMQ(*PRV (*PRV)) for the SNDPGMMSG 
command.

Subject: Calling commands from an RPG ILE program

I know there was just a thread on this, but, I've tried using QCMDEXC to 
execute a command.  Do it all the time - no problem.  However, SNDPGMMSG 
is unacceptable.  I do a DSPCMD and see no logical reason.  I supposed 
if I stretch I would determine that using QCMDEXC doesn't count as *IPGM 
or *BPGM but instead counts as *INTERACT or *BATCH.  So I guess I'll 
have to write a CL program to execute SNDPGMMSG, or use an alternative 
to SNDPGMMSG.
