RE: Changing Object owner

The chgobjown command only works one object at a time. However.... (there is
always an however on the 400)

You have three choices:

1) Enter a chgobjown command for each object (ugly)
2) If you can group the objects using dspobjd (all objects in a lib, all
files named UP*, all programs in a lib, etc) you can do a dspobjd to an
outfile and then write a 10 line CL program to rcvf the outfile and
chgobjown obj(&odlbnm/&odobnm) objtyp(&odobtp) newowner(george) for each
record. odlbnm and odobnm are the library and object name, odobtp is the
object type from the dspobjd outfile.
3) Hire a temp :-)

PS. If you happen to have Synon on your system there is a Synon/1 utility
that does exactly what step 2 does (ychgobjown). I'd guess that QUSRTOOL has
something similar (Al?), as may other software products.

Is there a way I can change the ownership of a group of objects from one
user profile to another in one fell swoop. I was sure I had done that once
but now I only seem to be able to do one at a time-very tedious with lots
of objects.
