Hi Phil,

It is an Endevor utility that prevents everyone from selecting their own
options.  This keeps the control under the Endevor Admins. And out of the
applications programmer/consultant.

If you feel that this is too greater risk for the benefit gained then ask
them to put in a check for the production ID, or authid for execution.

Regards, 
Herman Stocker

Subject: APF question

Anyone running a program called EDVPARM?  A consultant is trying to convince
us to install this program to an authorized library with AC(1).  Looking at
the source concerns me.  It appears that you can pass it a program name and
parameter list and the program will ATTACHX it.  This seems like a big hole
to me.  What if you pass it IRXJCL for example?  Or?
