One could also create a User Defined Option in PDM: FNDSTRPDM OPTION(*DSP)
PRTRCDS(*ALL)

Hi Edmund

I'm glad Chuck replied - I had already thought that this wasn't just a
SMOP (simple matter of programming).

The workaround isn't feasible for me - I do not have the rights to create
another profile, and it'd be difficult to justify it for this kind of
thing, when the current workaround is to clear a couple fields on the
prompt in PDM.

I have to believe that something can be written to retrieve the settings
and write them back to the user profile internals - this would probably be
a *SYSTEM level program, but it's being done now by PDM, so????

I think I will still submit an RFE later, unless Greg or someone else does
first!

Thanks for the detailed analysis Chick, you are helping me realise

Yes RDi implements its search by executing a FNDSTRPDM command. We do
this
on the job that is used for the RSE connection which has all the
environment (LIBL etc) set up.

To work around this I suggest creating a different USRPRF for your RSE
connection. RDi is unlikely to change its implementation since there
is no
API to change FNDSTRPDM defaults.

The feature is PDM, and AFaIK [and seems confirmed by testing that]
the effect is also\therefore the PDM. The /same/ effect is seen after
having performed a Find String Using PDM (FNDSTRPDM) request from a
command-line invocation; the Interactive Profile Entry (IPE) for the
User Profile (USRPRF) name that issued the request gets updated to store
the /previous/ choices for various find-string-function /parameters/.
That can be confirmed by reviewing the modified values being stored in
the IPE: DMPSYSOBJ The_USRPRF QSYS 0E /* if the Type is not '0E' [per my
recollection faded; am too lazy to lookup], then dropping all
type\subtype specifications and searching the much larger spooled
QPSRVDMP output will show the IPE data */

The RDi apparently implements the "Find Text String" using Find
String Using PDM, and thus the effect would be identical to if the user
had requested to perform a FNDSTRPDM with those parameters. The RDi
could evade the effect by issuing the find-request under a different
user profile than the one used for the connection to the server [that
performs the FNDSTRPDM].
