There is meanwhile an easier way to write messages into the joblog, by using the LPRINTF stored procedure in the SYSTOOLS library.

Matt,

Where do you want those messages to appear? In the job log? See:

DB2 LUW has this so you can put in debug output statements in a stored procedure: https://www.ibm.com/support/producthub/db2/docs/content/SSEPGG_11.5.0/com.ibm.db2.luw.apdv.sqlpl.doc/doc/r0053551.html

SQL Server has "Print" commands where you can output messages in a stored procedure.

Where is the printing capability in the IBMi for stored procedures so I can output some result information as the procedure is looping through the data?
