This Natural profile and session parameter specifies whether the content
of a write-protected field (attribute definition AD=P) can be overwritten
by a helproutine assigned to the field.
Within a Natural session, the profile parameter
OPF can be overridden by the session parameter

A helproutine assigned to a field can overwrite the field's content, even if the field is write-protected. | |

Notes:
OPF profile parameter only applies to the
field for which a helproutine is invoked; it does not affect parameters
explicitly passed to the helproutine. This means that the
OPF profile parameter takes no effect if the field for
which help is invoked is also explicitly specified as a parameter to be passed
to the helproutine.
OPF setting using the statement
SET GLOBALS.
