Yes Lizette, I am well aware of the SMP/E connection, but it is more than that.
MSM loads APARs into itself from SupportConnect when you update a product's 
maintenance status.
That does not mean they are in SMP/E.
In fact, they aren't automatically applied to your installed products until you 
say so.
And, once in SMP/E, unless you restrict your view to 1 zone, or choose to view 
the APARs from an ALL zones perspective, you have to interrogate each APAR 
individually to find out what zones an APAR has applied to.

What I want is a list of the APARs that are available in MSM to be received 
and/or applied via SMP/E.

Furthermore, I want to be able to see, in one display, the APAR, whether it is 
in MSM or not, whether it has been received or not, what zone or zones it has 
been applied to and, if it had been accepted, what zones it has been accepted 
to.

This is not available anywhere in MSM all at one time, only on an APAR by APAR 
basis *if* you drill down to it.

So, I need to be able to extract from the MSM database all APARs and their 
titles that are available for a product.

I already have the SMP/E extract portion.

The apar is still plain old SMPE.  All you need is the Global zone names to get 
the listing.
