Mike, there are two reasons why I'd prefer to just email the source to those who request it. #1 is that we're talking over 100 lines of code (which probably isn't too bad?) #2 is that the majority of my RPGLE source statements extend to column 80, which will split lines when our email server or the list server chops line lengths to 72 (or whatever it is). Mike, I will send the code to you in a few minutes. Other interested parties may email me privately at D.Bale@Handleman.com . SPECIFY whether you're on V3R2 or not (V3R2 requires shorter field names); if you don't, I'll send the V3R2 source. Oh, and one other caveat: Using a high-level "tool" such as DmpSysObj to retrieve this type of information is subject to OS release dependencies, although this particular utility has worked successfully on several releases (can't remember which ones, though the same code works on v3r2 and v4r4, so one could imply that all the ones in between are OK as well).

I originally tried doing a DMPSYSOBJ but couldn't find where the option file was stored, so couldn't work out if this was the way to go. Could you paste your source code here as it would be of interest? Thanks in advance.

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 ' ' Dan Bale IT - AS/400 Handleman Company 248-362-4400 Ext. 4952 -------------------------- Original Message -------------------------- Anyone know any way of retrieving/changing the defaults from PDM (other than pressing F18 on a PDM screen!!!)? +--- | This is the MI Programmers Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MI400@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to MI400-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MI400-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: dr2@cssas400.com +---
