Re: Programatically check for an IBM supplied profile

[Al Barsa <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

With all due respect, anyone can create a user profile starting with the
letter "Q".  Had hindsight been 20/20, maybe IBM would have not allowed us
to create user objects starting with the letter "Q".

Mike,

I would say that any user profile beginning with 'Q' is a
system profile.

If you have any other kind of profile beginning with Q (the
"wrong" way :-) ) you could do a DSPOBJD to all the *USRPRF
objects in QSYS to an *OUTFILE and check the ODCRTU field
(Created by...). For IBM created objects it should say
'*IBM'.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Luis Rodriguez
