RE: CALL an Unspecified Program Without a Command Line

Why not create a menu?
Use ?Call in the msg file.
I tried it. It works.
It should only take a minute or 2 to do this.

I can't get the CL to accept CALL without specifying a program.

How about a CL program that prompts the CALL command?
That will allow the programmer to specify the program, library and any parms
needed.

I need to give a former programmer the ability to CALL a program and I don't
know which program and I don't want to give him command line access. This
will be temporary until he can specify the programs, at which time I'll just
create menu options for him.

Is this possible?
