Re: MONMSG for Comm Line Vary on/Off Questions...

[Chuck Lewis <CLEWIS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

"Mr. Show-off" <BG> !!!

I'm currently on V4R1 and REALLY would like to be able to prompt and get that 
info ! I know others have mentioned it for other
things in the past...

What I was HOPING to do was capture any message and turn it into a more "user 
(non-IS) friendly" message via the SNDGMMSG.

Sounds like no go...

Thanks anyway !

Chuck
