I'm running UD 7.1 on Windows 2003 and am trying to use the ON.ABORT command
to prevent user access to ECL.  According to the UD Commands Reference
manual:
 
The ECL ON.ABORT command identifies a command that UniData executes when a
UniBasic program aborts. command may be an ECL command, a paragraph, or a
directly or globally cataloged UniBasic program. This setting remains in
effect until you clear it with the CLEAR.ONABORT command.
 
Reading the UD Windows Admin manual, the following note is made:
Note: You can also use the ECL ON.ABORT command to prevent users from
accessing the ECL or MS-DOS prompt. ON.ABORT defines a paragraph that
executes whenever a UniBasic program aborts. See the UniData Commands
Reference for information about ON.ABORT. 

If I set ON.ABORT, in the login paragraph, to execute a BASIC main menu
program, then press [Ctrl]+C to break out of the main menu, then enter "END"
at the "!" debug prompt, I end up at the ECL prompt.  I thought the command
specified by the ON.ABORT command was supposed to execute (the main menu
program).
 
So, how does one keep anyone from getting to ECL by any means?
 
As always, thanks.
