ingmenu Command--Start Ingres Menu
The ingmenu command invokes Ingres Menu, a forms-based interface for accessing the Ingres tools. For a complete description of Ingres Menu, see the Character-based Querying and Reporting Tools User Guide.
The ingmenu command has the following format:
ingmenu dbname|vnode::dbname[/server_class] [-e] [-uusername] [-Ggroupid]
dbname
Specifies the name of the database, and if required, the vnode and server_class, as described in Standard Flags and Parameters.
-e
Invokes Ingres Menu in empty mode. This flag is passed to the QBF, RBF, TABLES, and VIFRED options of Ingres Menu. It causes a catalog of applications, Join Definitions, tables, reports, or other objects to be displayed empty initially, so that you can enter specific names for those objects.
-uusername
Specifies the effective user for the session, as described in Standard Flags and Parameters.
-Ggroupid
Specifies a group identifier, as described in Standard Flags and Parameters.
On VMS, enclose this parameter in double quotation marks ("-Ggroupid").
