I bet he won't do that one again. <VBG>

Justin,

You remind me of the time my boss was test-prompting some commands to
check their defaults.  For some reason, when he came to PWRDWNSYS, he
hit <enter> instead of <f3>.  He ran over to my desk and we tried to
salvage the situation (this was in the middle of a production day), but
there was nothing we could do.

I don't think there is a way to stop it.

Thanks for the memories (I think).

Regards,
Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
