The  Change  Object  Description  3  command  provides  an  interactive
display  to allow  any object text  to be  changed.   The user  must be
authorized  to  change the  object.   The text  is shown  as a  50 byte
field with a ruler above.   This makes it simpler to make  changes such
as  to a  specific position  in the  User Profile  Text  description as
described in the PAGSEP tool.

You must have *ALL authority to an object to use CHGOBJD3.

A typical command would be:

             CHGOBJD3   OBJ(xxx) OBJTYPE(*yyy)

An  interactive display  would appear  and allow a  change to  the text
description.

Prompter support for changing text descriptions
-----------------------------------------------

Changing a  text description at  a specific  position is  not a  simple
thing.  When a  command like CHGOBJD or CHGUSRPRF  is used, the command
prompter  does not provide all  50 positions if less  than 50 exist (48
character positions  are usually  shown  surrounded by  single  quotes.
You  can expand  the  entry  field using  the  &  value, but  no  ruler
exists.

Trying  to  determine  where  a  position  like  35  or 41  is  can  be
difficult and is very error prone.

If  WRKOBJ is  used with  option 13  (Change description),  the command
prompter is used with the CHGOBJD command.

Command parameters                                    *CMD
