Hi. Can anyone please tell me if the message contents format can be anything else except string? For example, in Windows, can I put a message containing an image? Thanks in advance. |

If you put an image into a msg, you should probably describe it as an MQFMT_NONE, which just puts spaces in the MD.Format field.
The Format field is really only used for data conversion. If you are passing binary data you should leave the field empty. |

You can get information on the MQMD Format field in the Application Programming Reference. |

thanks for replying me. I didn't explain clearly what I meant.
I am interested in handling messages containing scanned images. I would like to know if there is any documentation or even sample in this. Programming language is not a concern. If anyone has seen anything, please let me know. Thanks in advance. |

The contents of the message are irrelevant to MQSeries, except where you have told it to perform character translation.
So all of the examples, that do not use MQFMT_STRING, and all of the documentation that is not specifically about character translation are directly applicable to your situation. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |
