Re: Querying message descriptions

QMHRTVM API will list them, but you have to call it multiple times.

There's a retrieve option parm... *FIRST for first and *NEXT for all the
rest. So, each call retrieves on message. when bytes returned is zero,
you're done with them.

Yeah, I tried an asterisk and got nothing, as I recall - that WAS early
this morning, after all!

I put in just the letter a and got a lot. I see that one can use multiple
conditions, with contains, hey, only 26 of them, right?

Glad the idea clicked and hope it works for you

Hey! That's something I hadn't thought of. I knew I could search, but
didn't know about the export to Excel. If I can trick the search into
showing all records, then I can export to Excel. With that I can upload
the Excel to a PF, and then query from that.

Thank you.

iSphere has a message file search feature, and you can export the
results to Excel

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.
