I received a nice email from Robert Mitsch about my status messages right click tool. Back in the days of SMS 2003 in late 2005 I had tried to work with the statview.exe application for the status messages but didn't have the time nor could I find some good documentation so I just kept it the way it was with statusmessages.exe. Well he has it working with statview. Shown below is the new method. The differences are as follows:
1. No longer to you need to select server and hit enter
2. Messages no longer pull ALL messages in. This caused problems sometimes. It now pulls in around 1 month of messages.
<filepath>C:\xxxxxxx\AdminUI\bin\i386\statview.exe</filepath>
<parameters>/SMS:Server=\\##SUB:__Server## /SMS:Path=##SUB:__Namespace## /SMS:System=##SUB:Name##</parameters>
Changes will be made here on SCCM Tools website
