Re: SBMJOB

John,

You'll probably get a slew of different ways about this.  This is what I would
do;

DCL   VAR(&MSGDTA)  TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(100)
DCL   VAR(&MSGID)      TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(7)
DCL   VAR(&MSGF)        TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
DCL   VAR(&MSGFLIB)  TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)

DCL   VAR(&JOB)    TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
DCL   VAR(&USER) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
DCL   VAR(&NBR)   TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(6)

SBMJOB  CMD(....)   JOB(....)
RCVMSG   MSGTYPE(*LAST)   MSGDTA(&MSGDTA)   MSGID(&MSGID)  + MSGF(&MSGF)
MSGFLIB(&MSGFLIB)

CHGVAR   VAR(&JOB)     VALUE(%SST(&MSGDTA(1  10))
CHGVAR   VAR(&USER)  VALUE(%SST(&MSGDTA(11  10))
CHGVAR   VAR(&NBR)    VALUE(%SST(&MSGDTA(21  6))

Now you have all parts of the job name separated.  I'm curious why you wanted 
the
job number.

All of my cl programs that do a sbmjob, right after the RCVMSG, I do the
following;
SNDPGMMSG  MSGID(&MSGID)  MSGF(&MSGFLIB/&MSGF)  MSGDTA(&MSGDTA)
which pushes the CPC1221 message back to the user.

Hope this helps.
