Rick,

As others have said you can use the QCAPCmd API for prompting and entering the command variables.

If you want an F9=Retrieve command option in it you have to do a SNDPGMMSG and RTVPGMMSG in direct sequence (sort of command processor), so this command can be retrieved on a command line.
There is also a Retrieve Request Message API, that can also, programtically, retrieve a command string.

Regards,
Carel Teijgeler

Hey all,

I want to programatically allow a user to key in a command, prompt it and
then retrieve the command and parameter string - basically duplicating the
functionality of PDM user defined options - when adding or changing the
command, you can prompt it, fill it out, press enter and the command string
is retrieved and put in the options command text field.

Is there an API that does this?

Thanks!
