<h1 class="topictitle1">Define double-byte messages</h1>
<div><p>To define a message with double-byte text, you can write a CL procedure
or program using the <span class="cmdname">Add Message Description (ADDMSGD)</span> command.
The defined message is put into a message file and then sent normally. </p>
<div class="section"> <p> When writing the program, do the following: </p>
<ol><li>Make sure the source file containing the program is a double-byte file.
Specify IGCDTA(*YES) on the <span class="cmdname">Create Source Physical File (CRTSRCPF)</span> command.</li>
<li>Use the source entry utility (SEU) to enter the program. CL commands using
double-byte characters can only be entered through SEU. For this reason,
double-byte messages must be created in a CL program.</li>
<li>Limit the length of the message to 37 double-byte characters, so the complete
message can be displayed or printed. <p>When using the <span class="cmdname">Monitor
Message (MONMSG)</span> command, also limit the Comparison Data (CMPDATA)
parameter to 6 double-byte characters.</p>
</li>
<li>If the double-byte message file replaces an alphanumeric message file
(such as files of translated messages to be sent only to double-byte display
stations), enter a command similar to the following to override the alphanumeric
message file: <pre>OVRMSGF MSGF(QCPFMSG) TOMSGF(DBCSLIB/QCPFMSG)</pre>
<p>Double-byte messages can be displayed only at double-byte display
stations.</p>
</li>
