You are correct, sir!  There are some binary fields in the LDA (as evidenced
by the ZLDA external data structure) that are set by calling BPCSMENU.  I
usually create a duplicate of BPCSMENU with no screen I/O that will accept the
same three parameters as SYS003B via a command interface and use it to submit
programs through the AS/400 job scheduler.  Otherwise, you end up with errors
caused by trying to open the DSPF to display the "Security Violation"
message...
