True, you need to spend a few minutes and learn how to use VMFVIEW. I find that it tells me what I need to know, weeding out the chit-chat. "VMFVIEW calls XEDIT to allow you to view the message logs. Using VMFVIEW, you can: o Select which product or component's messages to view. o Select which function's messages to view. o View all the messages with the same message leaders. o View all the messages with the same message number. o View the help file for a specific message. o Move backward and forward through the displayed message log. o View only those PTFs that have been received or committed."
