Re: Edit Object Authority for Library, Program, File and User Security.....

Thanks for the response. The user can now use the menus with the interactive RPG/CLs programs.
But now I am having problems with submitted jobs. I am getting the error the user is not authorized to the file. Look below. The program CL and RPG have both usrprf(*OWNER). Is there a parameter I am missing in the SBMJOB or create program command?

If USERA is running PGMA in LIBA (with adopted authority suitable for the file), and the file/table exists in LIBB (to which USERA is *Exclude), would the program be able to access the file?

As long as the owner of PGMA has suitable authority to the file in LIBB then yes.

Would a USROPN or a system-open make any difference?

No.

A comment on the previous appends: If you need to add an *EXCLUDE library to the library list then this must be done either in an adopting program or from a program that inherits authority from an adopting program higher in the stack. As I recall such a library cannot be specified in the user's sign-on job description because the initial library is built before the initial program is given control thus adopted authority is not yet in place.
