Abstract

Arrangements for enhancing browsing of messages in a message queue are disclosed. Embodiments include hardware and/or software for tracking records browsed by one or more agents. The agents can collect, process, and/or re-format data for an upperware application, a data warehouse, and/or similar systems. When the agent sets up communications with a queue, the agent may generate an attribute setting that instructs the middleware to track the last record browsed and/or the next record to browse. In response to setting the attribute, an agent identification (AID)) can be utilized to record the current record number, row number, queue identifier, and/or the like in a database. When the agent re-establishes communication with the middleware queue, the middleware can retrieve the current record number utilizing the AID.
