Re: Accessing/changing PDM defau

The MI gurus may have figured how to handle it more gracefully, but I have a
utility that retrieves the PDM defaults and puts them in a data area.
Updating the defaults is not possible through the interface I use to retrieve
them, which is basically:

   DmpSysObj  Obj( &User ) Context( QSYS ) Type( 0E ) SubType( C4 )

Since you seem to require updating the PDM defaults outside of PDM, you
probably wouldn't be interested, but I would be happy to share the source code
for formatting the DmpSysObj output into a data area.  I.e.:

  Data area . . . . . . . :   $PDMDFTSDA
    Library . . . . . . . :     QTEMP
  Type  . . . . . . . . . :   *CHAR
  Length  . . . . . . . . :   256
  Text  . . . . . . . . . :   PDM Defaults for user BALED

             Value
  Offset      *...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5
      0      '*SRCLIB   YYN 1QBATCH    *LIBL                DJBL'
     50      'IB    QAUOOPT   YYY                               '
    100      '                                                  '
    150      '                                                  '
    200      '                                                  '
    250      '      '

Anyone know any way of retrieving/changing the defaults from PDM (other than
pressing F18 on a PDM screen!!!)?
