Where there is a will there is a way.
With adopted authority,
Use an api to put all users into a user space,
Process the user space looking for members of a group profile,
Call another api to find all of the active interactive jobs
SNDBRKMSG to the job name of each of these active interactive jobs.

I have a program that processes the BPCS security file instead of listing all 
users
then it uses an api to list their active interactive jobs
then it does a SNDBRKMSG to each of their jobs.
I call it SNDBRKBPCS.
Useful for us running multiple divisions of bpcs on one machine.  Now they
can send a break message to all members of that division currently
signed on.  'Hey, get out.  We are running period end.'

Is there a way to send a message to a particular group? What I am trying to
accomplish is sending a break message via the 400 (V4R4) that should not go to
everyone. I do not want to specify each individual, there is close to fifty
people. Any help would be appreciated.
