When finding a message id in QSYSOPR, QHST, or joblog,
What is the easiest way to find the library/message file that contains the specific message id?
The message file library and message file name are not stored anywhere in the message.

I constantly find myself manually searching all libraries and message files, to find the desired message.
3rd party products are the worst.
