You may need to consider selective prompting for the command (i.e. in front 
of the command name).

My guess is that you need to place the selective prompts in front of the 
command and all the parameters that you want to change, otherwise (as is 
happening) you only get the parameters you have indicated/selected.

If you want to display them but not change them there are another set of 
conditioners to use. If you want to suppress parameters (and I guess in 
this case you might want to) then there is another set of conditioning 
things again.

Re-read the manual regarding the ?? ?- etc.flags and what they do. This is 
the trick to making it work. Test it VERY thoroughly.

Hope this helps
