We have used a generic user ID for our support persons to sign on to a data center. Due to audit requirements we were forced to elimiate the Generic User. Many queries were created over the years for customers and were saved with *CHANGE auhority instead of *ALL. Now that the generic user is no longer capable of interactive sign on, all queries owned by that ID saved without *ALL authority cannot be saved after modification by other user IDs. What would be suggested to alter existing queries from *CHANGE to *ALL owned by a user that is no longer available.

I have a library we will call liba. In liba i have files for different companies. For eg: files [strong]aa01.itm[/strong] is an inventory file for co# 01 and[strong] bb01.cms[/strong] is a customer file for co# 01. I also have files[strong] aa07.itm[/strong] and [strong]bb07.cms[/strong]. These files are for co# 07.I want to grant someone access to only the files for co# 07 when using query. Is this possible?
