  This will be very handy! Would it be possible to make  the SwitchRoleCenter class available? Many thanks, Greg

  Another way to view all role centers for demos purposes is to use the Administration / Setup / User Profiles form. You can then choose the role and click the 'View Role Centre' button for any profile.

  Just create the SwitchRoleCenter class and add the following method: static void main(Args args) {    URL homepageSite;    URL homepageURL;    Profile profile;    ProfileManager profileMgr = infolog.profileMgr();    #Web    ;    if (!profileMgr)        return;    //Get the homepage site    homepageSite = EPGlobalParameters::homepageSiteURL();    if (!homepageSite)    {        error("@SYS105504");        return;    }    profile = profileMgr.getProfile(args.parm());    if (profile)        homepageURL = profile.homepageURLPath();    if (homepageURL)    {        //Create full homepage URL, including company        homepageURL = homepageSite + '/' + homepageURL + '?' + #epParamCompany + '=' + curext();        infolog.urlLookup(homepageURL);    } } Yup, it is just the code from User Profiles form now using the parameter from the menu item. :)
