Creating User Rights in SYSPROG (AREV Specific)

Has anyone ever tried to create rights for certain users in SYSPROG.
Reason being, in management/users/SECURE USER, you can make the system
start in a certain menu … but I can't make it work.
Also …
You can do the same thing in management/account/SECURE ACCOUNT.
Now this will activate the desired menu, but it will not work when
users exit debugger by typing END.
Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Eric,
I'm not certain I understand what you are doing. Do you mean "can I use the SYSPROG account to create users and account specifications for other accounts?" or do you mean "can I create users and account specifications for the SYSPROG account?"
The answer to both questions is yes. If you are having trouble with this please define what process you are going through. BTW, is this AREV 2.x?

We created an several utilities to do such things.
P.e.
- an MFS to determine which user should see which menu(-options)
You could do this within SYSPROG or within the application as a SYSTEM MANAGER.

Eric,
I'm not sure I understand your question, but if you are asking what I think you are you should be able to go into sysprog and either make a new user or if you are using 2.12 secure an existing user. Once you have opened the window with that users info press F10 and choose advanced. At this point you can give the user a restriction level and at the bottom of the window under shell you should be able to enter M for menu. Under Command type the name of the menu you want to be displayed when that user logs on. It works very similar in 3.12 except there is no secure user option just press F10 and select advanced and follow the same process. You can make menus that fit the needs of certain users in make menu. If this is in the right direction and you need more help you can email me at [email protected]

(I work with Eric.) To clarify, we are seeking to use the AREV USERname RESTART CODE,COMMAND for a user. We have not been able to cause the RESTART CODE,COMMAND to "fire" when added in the SECURE USER screen. (Specifically, what we wish to do is use an "S" code which calls a subroutine (we wrote, compiled and saved in VERBS so that it is always available) The issue is NOT the "S" call. It is getting AREV to "fire" this restart code AT ALL. As Eric states, we can get this code to "fire" on some of the documented modes when the restart code,command is added in the SECURE ACCOUNT screen, but not att all on the SECURE USER screen.
The AREV Help for this prompt says this should "fire" when the AREV RESETs, (via F10 at the top level menu, user typing "END" at the DEBUG "!", or by typing RESET at a TCL window) We have not found this to be true. We are using AREV 2.11
Thanks for the responses so far.
