Re: Hint for finding a message ID in QCPFMSG

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Barbara's suggestion might be the best - CPF9898, well, when everyone 
uses that, it is impossible, easily, to know which of them matters.

If you want a tool to look for messages, I have a couple ideas.

1. Get iSphere and use its message file search tool in RDi - wonderful tool!
2. DSPMSGD QCPFMSG for all messages and output to *PRINT - I think there 
is a "level" parameter - you might not need second level. Then open the 
SPLF and search away.

To answer your first question, there ARE groupings - I don't think any 
are publicly documented - if you take that SPLF, you can roll through it 
and see some of them, I believe.

Roll your own!!
