Changing an Item Definition Each menu item on a menu has a corresponding DCL command or command file that executes when you choose the item from a menu. You can replace an item's current command definition with a new command or command file that executes a different series of commands. To change the DCL command or command file that executes when a specific menu item is selected from a menu: 1. In the Item Names list box, select the menu item that you want to change. 2. Delete the name of the current command in the DCL Command entry box. 3. Type the name of the new command or command file.
