If its MQS, you should have several processes in the mix that start with 'amq????' (from my poor overloaded 32k memory!) There is an IBM Page for MQS at hursley (UK) where it was developed, I've done some work with it as well. The URL is: http://www.hursley.ibm.com/mqseries There are several supportpacs (free code) that are worthwhile having, like being able to monitor what is happening inside a 'Q' If it;s MQ, and you need further help (I've got no clue why you need to know 'mcs' or MQS), email me off line landom@das.gov.au and we can explore further
