Return Values

This method has no return values.

Error Codes

This method generates one of the following error codes:

The method call was successful.

MQ_ERROR_QUEUE_NOT_ACTIVE (0xC00E0004)

The destination queue is not open or may not exist.

Remarks

This method is called after the transmission of messages has been stopped by a call to the MSMQOutgoingQueueManagement.Pause method.

This method restores the outgoing queue to the connection state (MSMQOutgoingQueueManagement.State) in which it was before it was paused.

Local administrative permissions are needed to resume the transmission of messages out of an outgoing queue.

Equivalent API Function

When using API functions, call MQMgmtAction and pass L"RESUME" (QUEUE_ACTION_RESUME) as the string indicating the action to be performed on the queue.

Example Code

The following code fragment shows how to pause an outgoing queue on a remote source computer, retrieve the number of messages in the queue, and resume the transmission of messages from it.

Dim mgmt As New MSMQManagement  
mgmt.Init Machine:="RemoteSource",  
          PathName:="Target\Q1"    ' Indicates outgoing queue on remote computer.  
Dim outqmgmt As MSMQOutgoingQueueManagement  
Set outqmgmt = mgmt  
  
outqmgmt.Pause  
MsgBox "There are " & mgmt.MessageCount & " messages in the outgoing queue."  
outqmgmt.Resume
