Hi,
I am trying to put a MT950 message manually in MQ Tool. The tool is administered by a colleague of mine. I have manually created an I message in SAA and got an O in return. I ahev tried to get a file in rje format for this message and then provide a copy of same to the MQ Admin. However, the user at other end is getting a LF instead of CRLF. Please let me know if this procedure I am doing is correct. |

To convert LF to CRLF you can place the file on a Unix host the FTP it to a Windows host (ASCII mode).
This is not a MQ related question. It is a text file question. |

| As I said, its not completely related to MQ. The problem is that its a SWIFT message and the outcome is not handled manually.. Hence, before I go further, I needed to know if there is any parameter setting at MQ side, which can prevent the CRLF to be checked. |

The application data component of a message is the responsibility of the application program. WMQ has limited data conversion capabilities - as documented in the APR manual.

Silly rabbit, tricks are for kids. 
Tell your Java programmer to use the correct escape sequence.
LF is '\n'
CRLF is '\r\n'

It's not about programming the CRLF.
Swift will not accept messages in the wrong format, nor will it produce messages in the wrong format.
So it must have CRLF in it for SAA to work. What happens later is nothing that MQ can affect. |

zpat, I'm not sure who that comment is directed at but the issue is about the 'MQ Tool' - hence programming. His 'MQ Tool' is not inserting the appropriate CRLF. Hence, his 'MQ Tool' needs to be updated. i.e. The program ('MQ Tool') needs to insert a CRLF in the message data rather than LF. Therefore, it is a programming mistake.
Or if the 'MQ Tool' is simply inserting a file as a message to a queue then have the 'MQ Tool' convert LF character to CRLF before it puts the message to the queue.
Or if it is a file and since you appear to be on Unix/Linux, run a 'tr' command over the file to translate '\n' to '\r\n'. Here's a good arcticle on handling LF <--> CRLF issue:
