Re: Deleteing Messages

[Chuck Lewis <CLEWIS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Al,

I guess I wasn't real clear there - what I was digging for was how code wise you
do something like this.

I have written stuff to "capture" messages queues to a physical (I do this with
QSYSMSG to keep track of security violations, etc.) but I was wondering how they
manipulate the actual queue...

Thanks !

Chuck
