Gary,

Where is QMHSNDPM sending the message? More specifically, what is your call stack entry setting?

If you are using * in the call stack entry, your call stack counter might be off.

You may want to try using *PGMNAME for the call stack entry. This will require optional parameter group 1 be used.

Thanks,
Gary Monnier

Subject: message text from message subfile does not appear in window

I have an RPGLE program that displays a window where the user is to be able to update a file we use to store parameters which control a local application.

The subfile for parameter records currently works as expected.

My problem is when the program detects an invalid value and calls QMHSNDPM to send error text to the message subfile, the message does >not< appear on the screen.

I see the error text in the job log, and don't see device errors so I guess I have an error with screen IO:

WRITE "window rec"
EXFMT "subfile control rec"
WRITE "message control rec"

The "message subfile rec" specifies SFLMSGRCD(17) which I selected because I want messages to show on line 17 of the window, just below text for F keys and above the bottom window border.

Thanks for any suggestions!
