How does one see the second line of status message

Question

Sometimes on the IBM iSeries, either at the command line or inside the SEU editor, one will get error messages that are too long to display on one line of the 5250 screen (line 24 if on the command line, line 27 when inside the SEU editor).

I believe this is usually a status message like you would send with SNDPGMMSG or QMHSNDPM. How does one read the rest of this status message? They are not usually (ever?) written to the job log and after certain keystrokes or a refresh, they disappear.

If you move the cursor onto the line (24 or 27), you can press page up and page down to see if there are more than one separate messages, but I cannot find how to view the second line of any given message.

Is there a simple keystroke or technique that I just cannot find in the online documentation?

Answer 1

Move your cursor down to the message line and press F1.

This will display additional message information:
