While browsing the messages in MQ explorer, it only displays the first 1000 characters. We are not able to see the complete message. Is there any freeware available that can be used to view the complete message ?

Anypoint MQ supports up to 120,000 in-flight messages per standard queue. Standard queues provide "at least once" message-delivery reliability. Due to the highly distributed architecture, Anypoint MQ occasionally delivers messages more than once. These queues ensure that your messages arrive in order.
The default maximum message length on IBM WebSphere MQ is 4 MB. If the message is too large for the queue, MQRC_MSG_TOO_BIG_FOR_Q is returned. Similarly, if the message is too large for the queue manager, MQRC_MSG_TOO_BIG_FOR_Q_MGR is returned.
You can set the queue manager attribute value in the range 32768 bytes through 100 MB; you can set the queue attribute value in the range 0 through 100 MB.
Click the Queues folder. In the Content view, right-click Q1, then click Browse Messages. The Message browser opens to show the list of the messages that are currently on Q1. Double-click the last message to open its properties dialog.
Before switching to something else, have you tried adjusting the WMQ Explorer settings?
First, get to the Preferences dialog:
Then select the Messages panel and adjust the value:
The reason that WMQ Explorer has these defaults set is to prevent an apparent "hang" if there were, for example, 3500 messages of size 64k. Given these defaults, Explorer will download no more than 500 of them and only the first 10k bytes of each. Given the defaults, Explorer can browse a deep queue with large messages and still return in a predictable amount of time.
The same issues hold true for any other browser tool since the bottleneck is the network and not the tool.
That said, if you want to look at other desktop client tools, SupportPac MO71 is quite popular.

Hermes jms uses the jms api - so you will not get all wmq features, but many. Its open source. Hermes JMS latest download
I also like mqmon MO71 and rfhutil IH03, free from IBM, but they are native WMQ and have their pros and cons.

You might want to have a look at MQ Visual Edit. It is a stand-alone MQ message editing tool but it is not free.
