If you have a DDS-defined screen connected to the message file involved, it
can be done by defineing the message field on the screen as an input field
as well,and you will be able to catch the text in the screen-definition
inside your COBOL-program. Not very elegant if you do not need a screen of
course, but....

Please respond to
COBOL400-L
I could have been a little clearer: I was looking for a method of directly
accessing a file of type *MSGF directly from within a COBOL program without
having to make a call to an external program. The goal is to capture the
message text within the program

Brian,
This is a snippet from a COBOL program that does what I believe you are
looking for, it follows no logic but you can see that you move the message
number into the MSGNBR field defined on the screen and when you write the
screen the message represented by the number will appear in the message
field associated. Below that is the associated message file.

Does anyone know of a way to utilize AS/400 message files in COBOL/400?
