RE: Unwanted messages

Florin, Alan;

Before you throw messages away you should always understand why the message was sent. In this case Florin is probably trying to read a subfile record that does not exist which IMO shouldn't happen. Determining why the message is occurring and fixing that issue will solve the problem of the user seeing the message and IMO improve the code.

Hi Florin
there is a command called RMVJLMSG that I have downloaded and now use extensively to remove whatever message is wanted to be removed (in my case
CPF5020)
However, it only seems to be available from systemiNetwork The author is named Rory Hewitt

Hello,



I have this interactive program processing a display file with a subfile; the user enters values in the input fields (both, Control and Subfile records). When the values are wrong, the program issues error messages (in a subfile message record), using QMHSNDPM API, which are shown the next time when the file is displayed. The problem is that the system issues, also, messages, like "Subfile Record not found" followed by a "C" (for Cancel) and the user sees this messages, too.



My question is how could I get rid of these system messages, so the user sees only error messages directly related to the values he enters?

(Hopefully I was clear enough with my explanation...)







Thank you
