It seems like PGMA may be a poorly written program, and I got the impression from earlier in the thread that techie21 did not want to change it, or was not allowed to change it, or didn't have the experience to change it. And thus may have been given an impossible job.


If it's really impossible to change PGMA, then a very complex way to handle this problem would be to

- Use SNDPGMMSG to put a marker message in the joblog
- Call PGMA
- Use the QMHLJOBL API to get the messages from the joblog and go back through the messages until you get to the marker message (no error) or until you get to the DSPLY (error)

This would only be an option if the situation was "not allowed to change it" or "don't have the source code to change it". Otherwise, changing PGMA to issue an escape message would be much easier than changing the CL to crawl through the joblog.
