This is reasonable. It's doing just what ASSOCEDIT does when you select
"Set Default". That is assuming that the 'key' stem is filled with the
keys for PMWP_ASSOC_FILTER or PMWP_ASSOC_TYPE. Without seeing the full
script, I would not use this code. The fragment appears to have some bugs
(i.e. GetIni should be SysIni).

This will not change the 'per object' settings you are having problems
with. For that you need to use SysSetObjectData. It's also possible that
UNIMAINT's 'Object Settings' feature could do the bulk updates you need.

HTH,

Steven
