I've been given a task of updating a field in a database, all occurences
of this field is a search or a sort key.  It has been awhile since I've
had to do this kind of problem.  (I also haven't heard any hullaballoo
about "when are we going to get CIUpdate" in a few years, so I suppose HP
finally implemented it.)

What are the preconditions for CIU to work?

Such as:

What do I do to get it started in DBUTIL?

Does it work from Query?

If so, is there a special command, or does Query's "UPDATE REPLACE"
command take care of it by itself.

Sorry for the ignorance but, from 1994 to February of this year, I only
had to worry about NM KSAM files.  If CIUpdate ever got implemented, it
flew by me.
