Running programs:
To run programs from the Object Table view, right click the item and select Run As or Run (Prompt) and then select i Application in RSE Job, Batch, Interactive, or Multi-threaded. See Running programs and commands for a description of the different ways to run a program.
Running commands:
You can run
commands in the Command field beneath the Object Table
view, and view messages in the Messages field. Here
is what the Command area looks like:
Running commands with additional parameters:
In PDM, you can enter commands on the command line to correspond with actions specified in your options list. You can perform the same action from the Object Table view by entering a parameter in the command field beneath the view. More specifically, you can enter additional parameters to the command before the command is performed. Then, use the pop-up menu on items in the Object Table view to run commands, and the parameter will be appended to the command when it is run.
Expanding and collapsing the Command section:
If you want to reduce the amount of space the command section occupies in the Remote System Explorer, or if you do not need to run commands on items in the Object Table view, you can collapse the command section by clicking the arrow in the top left corner of the section.

Note that you can use either the Object Table view or the Remote Systems view to run commands and programs. In the Object Table view, you can see the properties of all items at the same time; they are displayed as rows across the table. In the Remote Systems view, you have greater ease of navigation; you can work from your Library list in Objects subsystem, and you can see the contents of many items before selecting the one you want to run.
