Specifies the universal unique identifier (UUID) instance of the queue.

qid: Numeric, output

Returns the queue identifier that represents the format name of the queue.

rc: Numeric, output

Example: Example

This example obtains the format name of a queue from an instance UUID.

length msg $ 200;
qid=0;
rc=0;
CALL MSMQINSTTOFORMAT(guid, qid, rc);
if rc ^= 0 then do;
   put 'MSMQInstToFormat: failed';
   msg = sysmsg();
   put msg;
end;
else put 'MSMQInstToFormat: succeeded';
