CA Dataquery displays a bulletin board immediately after a user signs on. The bulletin board can be used to distribute information to all CA Dataquery users. Although you must use the Language Maintenance Facility to change and update the bulletin board, it is actually an administrative function usually performed by the CA Dataquery Administrator.
You can change any or all parts of the bulletin board. CA Dataquery does not protect any part of the panel. Use the following steps to change the bulletin board.
