One quick way is to save the UDC file under a new name.

First do a showcatalog and insure you know what the UDC settings are.
Good idea to keep a copy somewhere in case of trouble.

Then modify the old file and save under a new name.
Example U030818.pub

Then just do a setcatalog with the new name:

Example setcatalog U030818.pub;account
 If it is done at the account level

Normal caveats apply, watch user, account and system UDCs, and insure there
are no problems with the software you are currently using...
Also watch access and execution security to insure all can access.

Subject: [HP3000-L] Changing UDCs online

Hello 3000-l

Haven't done this in a long while, have searched the Archives, for more time
than I care to relate, zero results: I have a UDC that is being accessed by,
say, 70 Users, yet I need to implement a File command and save it so that
they get the new version when they next logon. Of course the UDC is set to
"*" and I can't save the file- someone know the method of doing this, sorry
for any bandwidth- is it in the Archives? Timestamp?

Best to all, esp those who got to go to Atlanta!
