Yes, I could just hide it. We have modified the logon screen already with our school logo and hid some other fields we didn't need that just confused users. Since the copyright is not hardcoded on the screen and coming from a variable from somewhere but where is that data coming from? I can't imagine that IBM has it as static code in some application. My thought was to just change the 2009 to 2015. For us this idea came up because of a remark an end user name ....."Oh, look, their using 6 year old technology that hasn't been updated since 2009"

I had fun reading other's suggestions. However they all left the copyright at the bottom. When looking at the source for it I see:
A COPYRIGHT 40 O 24 40DSPATR(HI)
So it isn't a constant. Therefore you'd better leave it on the screen or when IBM tries to output that it will fail.
I'll be honest, screens aren't my strongpoint. However, couldn't you indicate that as nondisplay? Sort of like a non display field in a subfile used as a 'key' or some such thing?

Is there a way to change the data shown at the bottom of the logon screen
or remove it completely? I vaguely remember that this was in a dataarea
somewhere but I can't find it if that is where it is.
