I agree, Edmund. One could find it in *ALL or *ALLUSR, too - but even
then, it might not have the same name. I was a temp (in the 80s) at a
big company here in the Twin Cities who used an S/36, and there was
contractor who all of a sudden wasn't there after lunch - turned out he
thought he had job security, he had used objects names that were all
different from the source name!! Someone else came in eventually and
hooked things up. I don't know, but I assume the objects had the source
name in them - just as they do now on the IBM i.

So that brings up a thought - there's an SQL service now for object
information, I think, maybe it has the source information there, too. I
admit, it might be a bit slow - but maybe there's something Scott and
his crew can come up with for this specific purpose.

Anyhow, just some more thoughts before lunch!

Cheers
Vern

It might not be necessary to go through all that - an existing

PRTF has

the width as one of its attributes, right? Or is there a way for

it not

to?

But an API exists to get what DSPFD has.

The issue, as I've been thinking it through today, is for

existing

PRTFs, where wider ones are not automatically opened with their

full

width. That's be the import of an RFE I submit.

Cheers, y'all!
