Natural provides the option to customize the default settings of your current Object Handler utility environment. For this purpose, Natural provides the text object OBJHPROF in the Natural system library SYSOBJH. OBJHPROF is used to specify environment-specific default values for flags and options that appear when entering the corresponding Object Handler screens.
To activate individual profile settings
In online mode, enter the Object Handler internal command
PROFILE (or SHOW
PROFILE).
This command invokes the Profile Maintenance tool that
displays a map with the general or user-specific profile parameters and their current values;
creates a new Object Handler profile with default values used internally in case an Object Handler profile does not exist;
allows you to modify general settings for the profile parameters in the Object Handler profile (controlled by Natural Security);
allows you to modify user-specific settings for the profile parameters in the Object Handler profile (controlled by Natural Security);
provides a description and help information for each profile parameter.
Enter PF4 to toggle user profile settings. You can use a Line Command to add, modify, or delete parameters from the user-specific profile.
Notes:
UPDATE updates the changes into the
Object Handler profile. For more information, invoke Help.
To deactivate individual profile settings
Delete the text object OBJHPROF from the library SYSOBJH.
