Re: Limiting (but not stopping) interactive query by user

Hello, all:

It might be done even simpler than that... if you have an initial program
(specified in the *USRPRF) when those users sign on, perhaps you
could issue the CHGQRYA there?

To quote Albert Einstein: "Make it as simple as possible, but not simpler."

Mark S. Waterbury
