Re: How does one determine what message file a particular message is from - PQT3073 , PQT4140

Hi Paul,

I run into this problem a lot with calling IBM APIs, since the error 
message data structure they return ("ERRC0100") does not contain the 
message file, only the message ID.   Therefore, in many cases, I 
instruct it to send me a "real" escape message, monitor for it, and use 
the QMHRCVPM API to retrieve the full message from the program message 
queue, including the message file.

(This does not perform as well as using the error data structure, since 
an actual exception is generated.)

You did not explain your situation very much... but perhaps the same 
solution would work for you?   From CL, you'd use MONMSG to catch the 
error, and RCVMSG to retrieve the details (including the message file). 
Or from an HLL, use the APIs that I mentioned above?

Or, if your goal is to re-send the message, you may not need to know all 
of this.... there are APIs, QMHRSNEM, for example, that can re-send an 
exception message from one queue to another.
