  ****************************************************************
  -Program logic to select messages based on SELECT, INCLUDE and
  EXCLUDE is misssing. SELECT program logic has been added,
  INCLUDE and EXCLUDE will be added in next release.
  -Queuetype parameter on FUNCTION command has no impact on
  selecting messages-at the point, where the message is selected
  or rejected there is no information about the queuetype it will
  go to. The programs have been changed to issue a warning message
  if queuetype parameter is coded.
  

Problem conclusion

• -SELECT logic has been added to the QCF programs.
  -INCLUDE/EXCLUDE logic is missing and if present
  INCLUDES/EXCLUDES have no impact on the load process.
  -QUEUETYPE selection parameter is ignored, if coded
  warning messages is issued.
