Can't you use the call stake entry parameter to specify it?
Alternatively right after the call to B from A do a receive message and then
a send message:  
Like:
    RCVMSG     MSGTYPE(*COMP) MSGDTA(&MSGDTA) MSGID(&MSGID) +    
               MSGF(&MSGF) MSGFLIB(&MSGFLIB)                     
    SNDPGMMSG  MSGID(&MSGID) MSGF(&MSGFLIB/&MSGF)           +    
               MSGDTA(&MSGDTA) TOPGMQ(*PRV) MSGTYPE(*COMP)

Subject: RE: Sending a message in CL
Since both programs are CLLE, both of these options would be much more
involved.  There aren't screens in either program.  I just want the messages
displayed on the bottom of the screen when the program completes like the
messages you get back when you compile a program from PDM.
I was asked for more details on my current command.  Here it is.  Again, it
works if program B (where this command exists) is called directly from the
command line but not when program B is called from program A.
SNDPGMMSG  MSGID(CPF9898) MSGF(QCPFMSG) MSGDTA(&MSG)
             TOPGMQ(*PRV) MSGTYPE(*COMP)

If I am understanding this correctly, I might consider sending the messages
from Program B to a data queue.  Then, perhaps at program A's LR time or
even upon a F-key request, run a procedure that reads the data queue and
provides the log you are looking for, at the time that you want it.
A second choice would be for Program B to populate a log file that can be
viewed, archived, cleared, or whatever you and the user want done.

I have program A that repeatedly calls program B with different 
parameters (both are CLLE).  Program B does its task based on the 
parameter and then needs to send a message that will show up at the 
bottom of the screen when program A is complete so we can see what all 
happened by scrolling through the messages.
I tried having Program B do a SNDPGMMSG *PRV *COMP and if I call 
program B from the command line, it works.  However, when program B is 
called from program A, the messages never show when program A is 
complete.  Can anyone tell me which command and parms need to be used 
to have program B send the message all the way back?
