Re: S/ 36 stuff on the AS/400

Good point Pat.
On the other side of the coin, if you are in the Basic assistance screen 
for certain commands (WRKUSRPRF is one of them) there are some options you 
will not be able to do, and may need to use F21 to change the assistance 
level.  The assistance level is set first system wide with the QASTLVL 
system value (another thing to look at - WRKSYSVAL *ALL and look around), 
then on the user profile, and you can change it on individual displays 
(and it will remember, by user profile, the view you preferred and use 
that next time you run the command.

As a side note to what Neil described, be sure to look at the
assistance level. At the work with printed output screen or
work with output screen, press F21 to chnage the assistance
level from 2 to 1 or the other way around. Level 1 is a more
"friendly" screen for the average user. The S/36 folks will
be right at home on that level of assistance.
