Was the message put by a program written in the COBOL language?
How many such messages do you need to process? If many, you will need to write a program.
You didn't say how big the message is, and what the format is. Most message utility programs do have message length restrictions. But if none of the available utilities can help, you could write your own program to parse the message. |

cobol message?
Messages are messages, whether created by COBOL, C, VB, whatever language. Messages are language-independent.
Messages consist of a message header (MQMD structure) and the application data payload.
WMQ provides structures in copybooks (COBOL) and include files for all the supported languages.
How to use the APIs and the structures is well-documented in the WMQ Application Programming Reference and WMQ Application Programming Guide.

Can you please post the RFHUtil(c) error?
I have checked many a message with the copy book feature and have had no problems. Usually if RFHUtil complains, it's because it has a reason to...
Remember also that if the message is bigger than 4MB you need to use a channel table, so that both ends will accommodate the message size...
In my experience length mismatches have been caused by translated messages (not loaded in original ccsid) and CR/LF problems...
Have fun

...and, each and every MQI call issues a CompletionCode and ReasonCode that identifies if the call worked or not - and if not, why the call didn't work.
Please post exactly what you did, and what the utility returned to you.
