Re: File Attributes -- MI400

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Sounds as if you need to run a scan of every object in every library
and change ownership, revoke adopted authority, etc. etc. to lock
your programmers out of production.
