Thanks for the reply.<br>
<br>
I have finished working through a few of the tutorials you referenced. Either I missed something or haven't yet gotten to the right tutorial.<br>
<br>
You've told me that it's possible to leave a message in a queue, i.e., that a message can persist in its queue even after it has been received by a consumer. Can you tell me how this is done?<br>
<br>
Also, such an approach suggests the need to explicitly delete the message from the queue. Is there a way to do this?<br>
<br>
Cordially,<br>
<br>
