Subject: ADD DELSTAT API FOR ALERTS

Category: 
  - Routine

Description: 
============

 This patch adds the DELSTAT API to the alert functionality to provide
 information on whether an alert has been deleted for various users.  The
 API was requested for CPRS functionality.
  
 DELSTAT - For the most recent alert with XQAIDVAL as the PackageID
 passed in, on return array VALUES contains the DUZ for users in 
 VALUES along with an indicator of whether the alert has been 
 deleted or not, e.g., DUZ^0 if not deleted or DUZ^1 if deleted.  
 Note that contents of VALUES will be killed prior to building the 
 list.
  
 Example:   D DELSTAT^XQALBUTL("OR;14765;23",.RESULTS)
  
 Returned:   The value of RESULTS indicates the number of entries in
               the array.  The entries are then ordered in numerical 
               order in the RESULTS array.
                   RESULTS = 3
                   RESULTS(1) = "146^0"   User 146 - not deleted
                   RESULTS(2) = "297^1"   User 297 - deleted
                   RESULTS(3) = "673^0"   User 673 - not deleted

  Installation Instructions:
  ==========================
   
     1.  These routines are not usually mapped on systems that allow
         mapping so you may not have to disable mapping.
     2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option on the PackMan menu. This 
         option will load the KIDS package onto your system.
     3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your 
         system. You now need to use KIDS to install the Transport global.
     4.  On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
         options: 
            Print Transport Global 
            Compare Transport Global to Current System 
            Verify Checksums in Transport Global 
            Backup a Transport Global
            Install Package XU*8.0*171
     5.  MSM Sites - Answer YES to the question 'Want to MOVE routines to 
         other CPUs?'. Enter the names of your Compute and Print server(s).
         AXP sites should answer "no" to this question.
     6.  Rebuild your mapped set if necessary.
     7.  If users are allowed to remain on the system during installation
         errors may occur when the routines are loaded.
