This example allows you to output any return parameters in the ACS message list at the bottom of the Run SQL Statements screen.
--Sample Stored Procedure
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE
QGPL.SpOpPgmMsg
(
OUT msgvar varchar(255)
)
LANGUAGE SQL
MODIFIES SQL DATA
BEGIN
--DECLARE msgvar varchar(255);
set msgvar = 'I am a test message';
END
;
--Call sproc with ? for output parameter
call QGPL/SpOpPgmMsg(?);
--This is what ACS shows
Return Code = 0
Output Parameter #1 (MSGVAR) = I am a test message
Statement ran successfully (152 ms)

Yeah I ended up using this approach. Seems to work well, just doesn't output to the bottom of the ACS query results window like I wanted.

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:
