: You need to be able to change the popup menu setting from Icon View to
: Details View.  I looked but didn't find a method for doing this via

The better way is to download or get off an os/2 related CDROM,
the rexx extension APMT, it's in the zip file called apmtst.zip.
In it are two functions:

MENU_SELECT  and SYSMENU_SELECT, for example, to select my TE/2
program window, do a copy all then the minimize it:

rc=init_session();
rc=select_window("TE/2*");
rc=sysmenu_select("Copy All");
rc=sysmenu_select("Minimize");
rc=end_session();


and that would do it.  APMT is freeware from the IBM EWS collection,
(Employee Written Software).
