Jim,

If you do a DSPMSG, and get to the 2nd level text, you'll see that it's formatted nicely, w/ paragraphs, indents, etc. This is accomplished by the system via those embedded codes. I would like to duplicate that functionality when I display a msg through a regular field in my program.

Gotcha -

So I'm curious then what you mean by 'Formatting the received message
text' then. I guess you are saying that a message has come in with these
characters embedded. What is it you plan to do with that data that
requires you to handle these characters?

Jim,

  I think that it's the "QMHRTVM - Retrieve Message" API.  I'm referring
to
the paragraph formatting characters, not the message data characters.
