Re: Display a Messsage

I don't have any issue with using FRCDTA, or indeed using an API to send a
message to the program message queue with a message subfile, just that as the
original respondent had already tried to code this to work with an EXFMT and a
WRITE, and the change was straightforward to make his code work without any DDS
changes, or changes to his RPG, I thought simple was best!

How about FRCDTA and you can leave the DFRWRT alone?
