Hi guys,

I've successfully connected the IMSDB with a transaction from online region using a rexx code. I face issues in handling the return codes of the IMS calls.

Below is my code:
Code:
Address REXXTDLI
DataBase='#6'     
SSA1='IMSDB1(BEEQ'bc')'
   'GU DATABASE chk SSA1'       


Below is my output for an invalid key (in my message queue):
Code:

DFS3160I IMS CMD=GU DATABASE chk SSA1                       
DFS3161I REXXTDLI Call=GU   RC=0900 Reason=0000 Status="GE"


When I print the RC variable it gives a value of 2304.
How can I get the actual return code/ status/ reason that are in my message queue viz. RC=0900 Reason=0000 Status="GE"

Can somebody help me as I'm stuck up here.

Thanks in advance for your help.

'900'x is 2304 decimal. Does that help?

Hello,

At the top of the page is a link to "IBM Manuals" which contains 4 volumes of IMS messsage/code info.

Also, pay special attention to the:
Using LookAt to look up message explanations link -
publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/handheld/Connected/BOOKS/DFSMC3H1/2.5?

as the LookAt facility may be used for many, many things. . .
