1.2.2.9.3 Requesting More Information about a Message

 






   To request more information than that provided in the text of a TRANSMIT, 
   RECEIVE, MVSSERV, or VSBASIC error message, use the MSGID operand of the 
   HELP command with the message ID enclosed in parentheses. 



   If messages on your terminal do not display a message ID, see "Changing 
   Your User Profile with the PROFILE Command" in topic 4.1.1 to read about 
   changing your profile to display message IDs. 




    ___ Example ____________________________________________________________  
   | To request information about the TRANSMIT message INMX090A, enter:     | 
   |                                                                        | 
   |   HELP TRANSMIT MSGID(inmx090a)                                        | 
   |                                                                        | 
   | You then see the following:                                            | 
   |                                                                        | 
   |  ______________________________________________________________________|___________  
   | |                                                                      |           | 
   | | INMX090A  Enter data for receiver. Enter 'string' to stop.           |           | 
   | |                                                                      |           |

   | |           .                                                          |           | 
   | |           .                                                          |           |
