I am looking for the efficient and useful way to browse messages through Local Q, if I use MQ explorer, I can't filter messages out.
I want a way to browse messages where I can get the Particular MQMD parameter of a message.
Suppose I want to count hose messages who are going to expire in next 30 mins out of thousand of messages in that local queue, how can I do that?
or If I want to filter out messages which was put on a specific date or time period, then also how can I do that? |

QLoad and Q program can help to manage messages to some extent but I have no answer for what you are looking, maybe some of the expert in this forum can help you with that.

Thanks, but my requirement is more and need to cover the scenarios which I mentioned.
I wonder why IBM doesn't provide any utility for this, it should be incorporated in MQSC command. |

MQ installation includes a range of sample applications and source code. You can modify these to meet your requirements.
MQ Explorer is not designed to be an application messaging support tool, it doesn't have many capabilities to handle message data.
There are also IBM SupportPacs (eg. IH03 RFHUTIL) and 3rd party ISV products that provide message handling capabilities. ISVs can be receptive to requests to add useful new features that you desire.

Hi, thank you for the information , my requirement is not to handle message data but instead more on "browsing" the queue for different messages based on conditions like message age, message length , user ID etc etc. |

If your applications are using MQ properly they will not leave messages on queues for a long while.
Are your applications treating MQ like a database?
MQ moves things from A to B, and has limited options for looking at what you have (because in principle it is constantly changing).
A database stores state and gives you many ways of querying what you have. |
