second level message text

[Guest.Visitor]

I am using an API to retrieve the message text from a message file. Is there a way that I can retrieve the second level message text? I can't use the F1 help key because i load the text on the display screen.

It's not explicitly designated in the formats, but I gotta believe it's in Format 200 in the QMHRTVM api.

The second level text is what's called the "help" in the QMHRTVM documentation. It's in all the formats. Unfortunately, there's no way to get -only- the second level text, as far as I know. You have to get both. So your receiver has to be big enough to hold the first and second level text all at once.
