Re: Oh No... How do I run commands in S36 environment?

What I have done in similar situations is to use a CL program with a display screen.
Here is a CL program with a display file. As you will notice, it is by way of Simon Colter.

Here is another CL Program that is a window and uses push buttons and is mouse-clickable.

These are pretty old but you can see how it works. Perhaps it will work for you.

Hi All,


I have always been thankfully ignorant of the S36 Env. But now I need to
know something.... Beans!


I am trying to write a simple subfile pgm where each list item is a CL
command, an S36 command or a STRS36PRC command.

A *S36 env user will run a CL command(ALWLMTCPB(*YES) to get to the
subfile pgm.... And select a list item and the command will be executed.
It's just a menu type program, where the user selects an item, and the
associated command is executed.


In this case each user is LMTCPB(*YES).


I was planning on running the CL commands and S36 commands with
QCAPCMD... It seems that if I select option 3 of QCAPCMD, it will run
both CL and S36 commands, But... and here's the rub... it applies the
LMTCBP restriction, so the limited commands will not run.

The commands are things like GO QUERY, or WRKQRY, or FLIB MYLIB, or MENU
SYSTEM...


The only method I can get to work is to create a real SDA menu.... Which
I have not discounted entirely, but is not my first choice.


I'd like to just call a command execution pgm like QCMDEXC or
QCAPCMD....

Anyone have any ideas..? I know it's off the beaten path.....


Thank you in Advance,


Dan
