Abstract
A method of selecting items from a hierarchy of items and then performing a selected task on the selected set of items. An engineering set up control program includes a procedure for denoting processes, groups of processes, and subgroups of processes which are available for use by operators of the system. The processes, groups and subgroups are visually presented in a three level menu. Subgroups and groups of processes can be selected using the three level menu, and then operated on as a group.
