Re: iSphere msg missing Reply box

I even tried to maximize the dialogue, but I still didn't get the reply textbox. The caption's always there, but the textbox itself is missing.

Subject: Re: [WDSCI-L] iSphere msg missing Reply box

Works for me under Win 7, even when signed on to a 5250 session with the MSGQ(*BREAK).

Right click the message (with the "?") > select MESSAGE DETAILS and the iSERIES MESSAGE window appears. (Alternatively, just double-click the
message.) The REPLY field appears as the last item.

WARNING: I had to enlarge the iSERIES MESSAGE window to see the REPLY field - it may be hidden. (There are no vertical/horizontal scroll bars to suggest more information available.)

NOTE TO TOOLS/400 TEAM: Just a suggestion or two to enhance the iSphere Messages subsystem.
- Change the title in the Message Details window from iSERIES MESSAGE to IBM i MESSAGE
- Enable vertical/horizontal scrolling in the Message Details window
- Add an extra item to the subsystem context menu to SEND a message, maybe a front-end to CALL QEZSNDMG? (I know we can prompt SNDMSG and SNDBRKMSG commands within RDi, but a graphical interface similar to the old Access for Windows System i Navigator SEND function would be very handy.)
