I am talking about the CURLIB (Current Library) parameter in the CRTLIB command. F1 shows help for this field as: "Specifies the name of the library used as the current library when menu is shown...." with possible values being *NOCHG, *MNULIB, *CRTDFT and library-name. I am using this to emulate the way S36 menus are used. When you go to a S36 menu the current library is changed to the library of the menu. I found some difficulties in converting menus from S36 to native menus until I found this parameter. The only problem is every time I modify a menu with the 17 option (Change using SDA) in PDM and hit F3 to exit changes and Enter, then I get to the compile screen, that uses CRTMNU to compile the menu interactively. At this point I have to enter a 'Y' for "Prompt for parameters" so that when it goes to compile I can change the CURLIB parameter in the CRTLIB command to *MNULIB. So, that when a user displays the menu their current library is automatically changed to the same library as where the menu is contained. I was just hoping there was someway I could specify PDM to use *MNULIB instead of *NOCHG for the parameter for CURLIB so I could save a few extra steps.
