Hopefully I’ll get this right this time!

I don’t do commands very often and haven’t really worked with them for about 20 years so I’m rusty as heck.

Here’s what I want.

Outfile required . . . . . . . . *YES *YES, *NO
Output file . . . . . . . . . . *GEN______ Name, *GEN
Library . . . . . . . . . . . __________ Name
Member . . . . . . . . . . . . __________ Name, *FILE, *DATE
Replace physical file . . . . . *NO_ *YES, *NO

Only if *YES is specified to the first parm do I want the others to appear. I can condition them via a defined Type but then it does not appear to allow me to specify default values for the individual components such as Member and Replace.

Only if I specify them as individual parms can I get the defaults accepted.

Is what I want possible? Seems like it should be.

In a related question - how do I control which parms appear in the initial prompted screen. It seems that the minute I have a parm related to a PMTCTL it does not appear unless I press F9 and then I get everything.

Can anyone provide a little WD40 to loosen up my aged brain?
