Re: UIM Conditional Menu Options

Ð
Hello Erick,

A sample of your code would be helpful however this should not be too 
difficult.  You need to 
define a UIM condition to control the menu item.

:COND NAME='LIBEXIST' EXPR='CHKOBJ("QSYS","*LIB")'.

Then you reference that condition on the menu item.

:MENUI COND='LIBEXIST' HELP=...  ACTION=... OPTION=2.Do something

Be careful with the trailing full-stop (period) and I have found the UIM parser 
to be sensitive 
to extraneous spaces in comma-separated values -- note the above example does 
not have spaces 
before or after the comma in the CHKOBJ function.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
