represents a potential point at which the message could have been received. If the mapping table
information has been removed from the program, this field returns a count of 0 and no statement
numbers are available. The array of receiving statement numbers or instruction numbers immediately
follows this field in the returned data.
Number of sending statement numbers or instruction numbers available followed by an array of the
sending statement numbers or instruction numbers. The number of statement numbers or instruction
numbers available for the sending program or procedure.
