3126.0. "disable session manager pulldown menu" by MLNCSC::VOCI () Tue Jul 24 1990 12:20

    I saw an articol in starts that explaind how to disable a session
    manager pulldown menu. The suggestion was to modify the files :
    	sys$library:decw$session.dat
    	sys$login:decw$xdefaults.dat
    all this was true with decw 1.0.
    
    I would like to do the same thing with decw 2.0, but I can't find the
    file decw$session.dat is it non longer present or the name is
    changed...ect...any idea would be wellcome.
    
    Thanks,
    Gea.

3126.2A1 and workstation ......said in the same breath......wow.....CDBACA::BURKEAndy � Wed Jul 25 1990 20:2215
We (you/me/DEC) have a customer that would like to do this very thing.....

They have ALL_IN_1 users that need to access a graphics package on a 
workstation...that are captive users....and very dangerous....I'm told to
assume.....

We need to remove the print_screen pull-down and take several options off 
the customize pull-down......as well as eliminate the decterm/file view option
from the appl/menu/definition stuff......

I've found the decw$session.dat file.....but it's not clear what I should 
be doing with it.....

Any/All Help appreciated.....

3126.3didn't find informationMLNCSC::VOCIThu Jul 26 1990 06:5211
    I found the file decw$session.dat in the decw$system_defaults, but
    I read that there were suppose to be lines like:
    	*MainWindow.menubar.CreatePulldowm.label: Create
    I didn't find any, I checked in the other .dat files but found nothing.
    Never the less I created the file decw$xdefaults.dat in the sys$login,
    but nothing happend the create pulldown menu worked as usual.
    
    Any more ideas, I really nead this information.
    
    Thanks,
