Yeah, I feel ya. I've got a situation where WTO's are being issued from a CICS exit, and they too are malformed. Someone is supposedly working on stitching together long, broken messages into a real MLWTO instead of the mess it currently produces.
This is somewhat older SHARE handout that discusses MRT and clever uses of (PIPE) EDIT statements: https://share.confex.com/share/117/webprogram/Handout/Session9918/Session9918-NvEditLang.pdf I've been working on standardizing local "eye catching" messages into more useful formats using MRT rules, and don't mind sharing a snippet of what it can do. This example boils down a "loose" WTOR to the necessary items that the automation table and subsequent routine can use: UPON (MSGID = '***') SELECT *---------------------------------------------------------------------* * Original: * * 000 *** MTOREPLY *** ** OLS ? ? EXECUTE ? PROC * * * * Revised: * * 000 AOIMS9019A <jobnum> <member> * *---------------------------------------------------------------------* WHEN(WORD 3 NW WORD 6 NW WORD 9 NW = 'MTOREPLY OLS EXECUTE') REVISE(WORD 1 1 'AOIMS9019A' NW WORD 1 NW JOBNUM NW WORD 11 NW 'REVISED*' AUTOTOKEN 'Y' AUTOMATE) Although it doesn't include it, verifying it is a WTOR can be done with interrogating WQE: WHEN(WQE SUBSTR 345.1 ¬= '00'X) There are several other revision statements in the UPON group, but this example has a good mix (IMO) of selecting keywords, revising message text, and marking (via AUTOTOKEN) the message for later followup with the support team to produce more meaningful messages. Maybe there's enough elements to work with in your malformed messages to overcome some of the issues you face, but maybe not. Regardless, good luck!
