Does an API exist for....

[D.BALE@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

There's no API that I'm aware of.  If you want an undocumented and unsupported
method to retrieve this information, with no guarantees that it will still
work after you apply PTFs or upgrade the OS (eh, I should be a lawyer...),
then I have source code I'd be willing to share.  Originally written on a RISC
box, and tested on several V3R7+ versions, it retrieves everything you see
from the F18=Change PDM defaults screen.  I have since learned that several of
the F18 screen variables are not available using the method I programmed for
V3R2, including the name & library of the user-defined options file.

Basically, I read the output from:
     DmpSysObj  Obj(&UserID) Context(QSYS) Type(0E) SubType(C4)

You can roll your own or, if you email me PRIVATELY, I will send you the
source code that I use to retrieve the information from the DmpSysObj output.

Does anyone know if an API exists that would be able to retrieve the PDM
defaults, that would normall display/change by doing an F18=Change defaults
I'm wanting to be able to retrieve what the user has defaulted to be his
User-Defined Options file, QAUOOPT.

thanks
