Hi Lim,

<snip>
Question: is there a way for me to utilize the logic in SndMsg with copying them to SndMsgQ?
</snip>

Damn hotmail and it's short subject line!

Anyway, here's how I'd do it:

1) Move the code from within SndMsg to SndMsgQ and then call SndMsgQ from SndMsg with the params passed to SndMsg re-arranged to suit SndMsgQ.

2) In SndMsg you should pass MsgInQueue as blanks (or a suitable default value) to SndMsgQ if %addr(MsgInQueue) = *null.

3) In SndMsgQ you should already be checking for %addr(MsgInType), %addr(MsgInType) and %addr(MsgLib) <> *null (or %parms > a certain value) so they're already taken care of. You just need to cater for the MsgInQueue value being a default value.

So I would put all of the code in the more restrictive subprocedure, and in the less restrictive subprocedures you add default values for the params you are not passed but the more restrictive subprocedure requires. Then you simply call the more restrictive subprocedure from within your less restrictive subprocedure. This way you can create a lot of entry points, but one set of code. It also lets you have control over how much data is required, and what to do if some isn't passed (set defaults or throw an exception).

Cheers
