Pop-up messages

When using a CICS VR panel interface, various pop-up messages might be displayed providing additional information.

For example, CICS VR displays the pop-up message as shown below, when the Browse messages option is selected from the "CICS VR main menu", but no messages have been written by CICS VR.
