Good morning all,
I have tried everything I could think of; various combinations of *TOPGMQ & *MSGTYPE, used message id CPF9898, created my own message and I simply cannot get a program message to display on line 24. It shows instead in the job log only!
IE:
A menu option is an interactive program. At initialization, a call to another program determines if a user has authority to run the program (in-house authority file consisting of a pgm name, user name, and a field: y/n). If the field is n, that second program calls a third program that is supposed to display a message on line 24 of the menu screen indicating that the user doesn't have authority to the menu option program - this doesn't happen.
As I said, I've tried all combinations and all I can get is a full screen message when I use *INFO. Never has it appeared on line 24.
Did I slip into the twilight zone....
Does it have something to do with the progression of calls?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Mike.
