here is a previous post from Don:

I have posted a *CHOICE program on my web page. You can download it for
free.
It is used with a user-written command to present a list of valid choices
for a
parameter when the user presses F4. The list can be stored in a file.

This is a pretty slick program, written in OPM CL.

You can have it for nothing. I'm NOT selling anything, no SPAM, whatever;
just
making it available.

Peace,
