Re: Changes to Attention key menu option.

Hello Stephen,

I can't check the verity of my statements at the moment but ...

The options on the System Request Menu are invoked by commands stored in a 
CPXnnnn message in QCPFMSG.  There 
is a good chance that the Operational Assistant Menu operates in a similar way. 
 If you can find the 
appropriate CPXnnnn message you can change the commands e.g., WRKJOB to DSPJOB.

I think option 75 takes you to a menu so you could revoke authority to that 
menu.

Option 80 does a Disconnect Job (DSCJOB) command so you could revoke authority 
to that also.  That should not 
stop the disconnect on device error from working.  Although why would you want 
to stop users from disconnecting 
their jobs temporarily?

If you are concerned about these options you probably want to do something 
about the SysReq menu also.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
