The key here is in using the {} braces and using STREAMX.  This way the
variables are evaluated before the job is actually run.

Sorry for any confusion!!!

Hello Ron
are you sure for your tip ?
This is what I get with your command :

:TELL #!HPJOBTYPE!HPJOBNUM; "  *** JQUERY est TERMINé"
                  TELL #J428; "  *** JQUERY est TERMINé"
       ^
  The sender is the only qualifying target.  No
  message sent. (CIWARN 1620)

May be something is missing !.

Actually, I like to use this type of tell:

!TELL #{HPJOBTYPE}{HPJOBNUM};!HPJOBNAME IS FIN....

Then it goes straight to the person who streamx'ed the job.  Otherwise,
if
you have more than one person signing on the same way, everyone gets the
tell.

Later

If you have Vesoft and you use Streamx, you can also do:

!JOB .....
!TELL {HPUSER}.{HPACCOUNT}
!TELL {HPUSER}.{HPACCOUNT} *******************************************
!TELL {HPUSER}.{HPACCOUNT} Move Started - Job in progress ...........
!TELL {HPUSER}.{HPACCOUNT} *******************************************



!EOJ

and you will have the same results.
