Export physical files directly to the IFS with headers.
Written by Tom Snyder
In my previous articles about SQL on the IBM i, I have used common commands that are available directly from the command line. In this article, I will use the db2 command in Qshell to export files directly to the IFS. And when I create the file, I will also satisfy a common need to include header information with the data.

Sometimes you want to see messages that tell you things went right instead of wrong.

In the previous article, "More On Sending Messages from an Application Program", the Send Program Message (QMHSNDPM) API was used to send a user error message indicating that a severe error had been encountered and, if appropriate, diagnostic messages explaining the cause of the error. But not all programs encounter problems—at least I hope not all of your programs do! In this article, the QMHSNDPM API will also be used, but now to send a variety of non-error related messages.
