Hi all,

I'm doing a quick utility to list available
commands.  I have a screen built to display the
commands, where they can run, when they were
created, etc.  It includes selection fields to
limit what is shown.  (the screen built with Synon
2/e, but used no file, for those of you that like
to hear about this sorta thing).  Now, I want to
have the option of creating a listing of the UIM
help associated with the commands, like press Fn,
get report.

I'm using an API to retrieve the commands in a
library (QCRDCMDI) but need the API to grab the
help.  QCRDCMDI returns the help object name and
library where the help is located.  As a quick
work-around for our QC guys, I'm just reading
through the QPNLSRC members, overriding for each
command and producing a listing based on certain
UIM tags that I need to limit on.  This is ok, but
I don't want to have to count on the source being
in the same place.

So, does anyone know the API that will get me the
help associated with a command?
