    Hello,

    I’m calling a tcl procedure on an alert message error and I have two questions.

    – Can I acces to the message (or message ID ) in this proc ?

    – I know the %F parameter but what it gives and how can I use it ??

    Thank you

        No you do not have access to the message or it’s metadata in Alerts.

        the %A argument is simply the same ASCII string that would have been displayed to the screen.

        The %F flag is a path, usually in the /tmp directory, of a file which contains the above string.  In the early days we had a routine to send error messages to X-Windows.  This routine required a file name rather than a string.  Thus the temporary file.

        OK.

        Many thanks Charlie
