Parvez,

You first have to do a DSPMSGD of all of the messages that you want to see
with OUPUT(*PRINT) specified.  You then need to copy the spool file to a
database file using CPYSPLF remembering to use *FCFC for the control
character.  Then simply download the database to your Excel spreadsheet.

This is very tiresome, especially in a high impact development environment.
To get around this, we developed a program that worked better than the IBM
WRKMSGF command - it allows you copy, etc.  The MRGMSGF command comes
someway near to this but it doesn't allow you rename message Ids when
running the command.

Regards

Ian
