        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 :-)


I've just done this job (before all the excellent suggestions came up!).
I used wrkobjown and then used option 9 again each object I wanted to
change.  I would suggest making sure that no one else is using the
objects you wish to change as otherwise you have to repeat the job until
they are all done.
