Searching Message Text


Hey, Ted:

Is there a way to print or query a message file?

My problem is that I know the message text and need to find the message ID.

-- Bill





Use the Display Message Description (DSPMSGD) command to build a spool file:





DSPMSGD RANGE(*FIRST *LAST) MSGF(xxx) +
   DETAIL(*BASIC) OUTPUT(*PRINT)




Then display the spool file and search it.
