Re: Querying message descriptions

Funny thing is there are these APIs:
Retrieve Message (QMHRTVM)
Retrieve Message File Attributes (QMHRMFAT)

But neither one lists out the messages within the message file like
WRKMSGD does. Is there such an API?

I do not see an IBM supplied one listed at:

Perhaps you could write your own UDTF that would perform such a function.
Here's a sample of a homegrown function calling an API

Someone asked me for a list of possible messages a program might send. I
compiled a list of about 250 message ID's that refer to a vendors message
file. Is there an easy way to query the message description in a message
file? I'd like to join this list of ID's to the message file to convert
the ID's into descriptions. I've searched and haven't located anything
like a SQL view or service that might help.
