<ahem> you don't have to go into the shell to use 'mv'.  from the colon
prompt....

:mv "./NEWUDC ./UDCFILE"

...works just fine.  the above assumes that 'newudc' and 'udcfile' are in
the
group you're currently in.  also -- capitalization is important since you're
using a posix program.  if your udc's are in another group (say '.udc') then
your command would be:

:mv "../UDC/NEWUDC ../UDC/UDCFILE"

this assumes that both files are in your current logon account.  both
examples
assume that 'hpbin' are in your path.  if not then invoke 'mv' by typing:

:mv.hpbin.sys <blahblahblah>             - d
----------------------------------------------------
For the posix allergic or those without hpbin in your path, how about

:PURGELINK UDCFILE
:COPY NEWUDC,UDCFILE
