Re: Display a Messsage

Here is a sample of the DSM API QsnWrtDta(), that I was referrring to....
You could even create a *SRVPGM that would simply pass the Text you want
displayed, and everything else would be defaulted...


 * -- Define global variables...
d norm@img        c                   x'20'
d rev@img         c                   x'21'
d hilite@img      c                   x'22'
d red@img         c                   x'28'
d wht@img         c                   x'22'
d blue@img        c                   x'3A'
d bluerev@img     c                   x'3B'
d wrt@txt         s            128    inz
d wrt@txtlen      s              9b 0 inz(78)
d wrt@err         s              8    inz(x'0000000000000000')
d wrt@rtn         s              9b 0 inz

d  error                         8    options(*nopass)


 * -- Write "In Process" message to screen, before continuing...
