Re: Menu prompt object only

I don't think it's actually a CALL command he's wanting to do, based on him
writing:

"Here's what I have so far, just using CALL as an example:"

But I could be wrong.

Seem a bit strange to put an option on a menu that allows any program in a
particular library to be called...

What are you trying to accomplish?

I have a 5250 menu with a command that references a qualified object

but not the library. I can get the command to prompt for the qualified
object, but not just the object itself.

Is there a way to do that on the menu? Alternatively, doesn't the OS now
have ways to create command aliases? I checked Google for both. DDS

menus

are so old it's hard to find a lot of specifics, and I came up with

nothing

about command aliases.

Here's what I have so far, just using CALL as an example:
CALL ??PGM(MYLIB/MYOBJECT)


TIA
