Yes Rob that is also a good, easy solution.

For some reason when there was not a SQL option to delete a user profile I
did not think to using run SQL scripts.

But I have been making use of the CL: function quite a lot lately

Hopefully I will think more laterally next time :-)

I hear people talking about copying and pasting a long series of commands
from Notepad or excel into RDi or some such thing. I assume they then
make a program on it.

I have another option.
Here, when we create a program we have to create a project, get it
approved and process the whole thing through change management. Then, the
cost of the change management software prices it out of installing it on
all 15 lpars of IBM i since many of them only have a small ROUTINES
library I update.
So my alternative is to copy and paste them into iACS Run SQL scripts.
Then I simply prefix the commands with CL:
As in:
-- category: Dekko IT
-- description: Change journal receivers to a new one to clean up the
old ones.
--
CL: CHGJRN JRN(QCPMGTDB/QSQJRN ) JRNRCV(*GEN);
CL: CHGJRN JRN(QMGTC/QYPSDBJRN ) JRNRCV(*GEN);
CL: CHGJRN JRN(QMGTC2/QSQJRN ) JRNRCV(*GEN);
...
Then I connect to a system, do a Run All, disconnect, connect to the next,
repeat.
