Re: Programs Job Number that Pulled the Trigger

Andy

You are IN the job - programs don't have a job number, jobs do. So the job number is the job you are in, I think.

Am I missing something? It's early here!

An article published in the SystemiNetwork by Lloyd Deviney, Article ID: 2690 Called Give Your Trigger Programs "Caller ID" published back in Jan 1, 1999, was an example of a neat way for a trigger application to get the program that fired the trigger on a file. This was using two APIs: QMHSNDPM (Send Program Message) and QMHRCVPM (Receive Program Message)

Using the returned format RCVM0200 can retrieve the program name starting in position 110 from the QMHRCVPM API.

I've looked at each of the three formats that are returned RCVM0100, RCVM0200 and RCVM0300 and looks like I can't retrieve the 'Receiving Programs' job number.

What I'd like to retrieve along with the program that 'fired' the trigger is that programs job number.

Thanks;
