IRG, Why don't you send the message to the calling interactive programs message queue. Im sure I've done this before by using the calling programs name in the message subfile, bit I thought you could use SNDPGMMSG to send a message directly to the calling programs message queue, so the message should appear in the message subfile. Cheers Colin.W -----Original Message----- From: ile rpg [mailto:ile_rpg_guy@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 17 February 2004 22:50 To: rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Sending messages to the previous (caller's) subfile message queue I use message subfiles for regular application error messages; everything's dandy. Now, I'd like to send a message from a called program back to the calling interactive program. I'm returning the error message ID, so the caller knows there's been a problem, but I don't want to add the logic to post the error message to the caller's error message subfile. I want the called program to do all the work so I don't have to. When I jockey @clstkcounter, the error messages show up in the job log. I can send the message to *EXT but that's gross and will make users panic. I don't need an escape message. If all else fails, I'll pop up a little window with the message in it, but I'm sure done this before and have brain-faded. This is my so-called proof-of-concept code: D @msgid s 7 inz('CPF9801') D @msgfile s 20 inz('QCPFMSG *LIBL ') D @msgdata s 10 D @msgdatalen s 10i 0 D @msgtype s 10 inz('*DIAG') D @clstkentry s 10 inz('*') D @clstkcounter s 10i 0 inz(1) D @msgkey s 4 D @apierr s 256 C call 'QMHSNDPM' C parm @msgid C parm @msgfile C parm @msgdata C parm @msgdatalen C parm @msgtype C parm @clstkentry C parm @clstkcounter C parm @msgkey C parm @apierr I'm sure it's the right combination of @clstkentry and @clstkcounter values. I'd appreciate any suggestions!
