The Dictionary DICTPDE Utility
>ALTER DICT
Discussion
ALTER DICT allows you to use a Dictionary other than the Dictionary in DICT.PUB of
your logon account without using an MPE file equation to redefine the Dictionary.
Therefore, file and element definitions can be extracted from different Dictionaries without
terminating DICTPDE.
Example
>alter dict
DICTIONARY NAME (DICT.PUB)> Enter the new Dictionary.
dict.pub.howe
DICTIONARY PASSWORD> mgr Enter the password for the
specified Dictionary.
