Re: CRTDUPOBJ vs. option 3 on WRKOBJPDM

[vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Instead of pressing enter on option 3, press F4 - lo & behold, CRTDUPOBJ - 
pressing enter gives you a front end to the command, as the other reply said. 
The prompted form is already filled in according to the same kind of thing that 
is filled in when just pressing enter. But F4 lets you change things you cannot 
when you just press enter - the DATA(*YES) parameter, e.g., which is defaulted 
to *YES for PFs and to *NO for other objects (by PDM).

Consultant is wrong to the degree that the resulting command is always 
CRTDUPOBJ - just different ways to get there. You win the prize!
