4017.0. "Changing user's context" by DGOSW0::GUESDON () Tue Nov 03 1992 12:02
    Is it possible to use a MCC_RESOURCE.DAT file located on a directory
    that is not the user's home directory ?
    
    We would like to start DECmcc IMPM for a given user, with different
    environment datas, depending on our own calculated criterias. I tried
    to define a MCC_RESOURCE logical, but it didn't work...
    
    Also, is it possible to open automatically two DECmcc windows, on two
    different domains when starting DECmcc ?
    
    Thanks.
    
    Michel.

    The only way I have found thus far to accomplish this is to reassign
    the SYS$LOGIN logical to a different directory where a mcc_resource.dat
    file lives (and note with V1.2 a mcc_notification_resource.dat file
    also).  In this way I have two displays come up with two different
    domains on a dual-headed monster.  I generally run the windows from
    batch and my command procedures do the reassignment.   I have also used
    the same concept to provide a different sized map window for PC's
    running eXcursion versus VAXstations. Again all my processing is done
    via batch to help eliminate user botches.

|  | For VMS systems:
	logical DECW$USER_DEFAULTS points to the user mcc_resource.dat
For Ultrix systems:
	environment variable MCC_DECW_USR_DEF points to user mcc_resource.dat
If the above are not defined, it defaults to the login directory.
