Re: H-Spec RPG IV Option PTF

Hello Dan,

The key word is IMPLIED.  The OPTION parameter has no defaults defined in the 
command therefore CHGCMDDFT has nothing to work on.

Yes, it's annoying and yes, it's a limitation of element lists as you'll soon 
find 
out if you try to create an element list with a default value.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
