I'm assuming you're talking about the title bar for the Web page your
employees are using to access Host On-Demand.

That's probably in the HTML file your users access to launch HOD. To
confirm, load that page and then select "View Source" (or equivalent in
your favorite Web browser). You should see something like this:

<TITLE>P Company</TITLE>

somewhere near the top of the file.

There are a couple ways to change this. The quick and dirty (and slightly
dangerous) way is to locate the filename (such as myhodpage.html) -- that
should be the last part of the Web address. Then find that file on your
z/OS system. It will probably be in a zFS or HFS directory that looks
something like this:

/usr/lpp/hostondemand/HOD

That's from memory, and it's approximately correct, with perhaps some
capitalization differences. If you look in /usr/lpp it should be pretty
obvious. The file (myhodpage.html) will probably end in a .ascii extension
(e.g. myhodpage.html.ascii). Using an ASCII editor, change the file so that
the company name is updated. Be sure to make a copy of the file first. If
you have to transfer the file to a PC or Mac to make the change, be sure to
transfer it in binary mode both ways.

The safer (and more powerful) way is to re-generate the file (and
supporting configuration files) using Host On-Demand's Deployment Wizard.
In that same directory you will likely see a .zip file (e.g.
myhodpage.zip), assuming the person who set this up placed the original
Deployment Wizard output there, on the z/OS server. Download that Zip file
to your PC, and open it with the Deployment Wizard. That should allow you
to change any and all parameters, including the page title. When you're
done, let the Deployment Wizard generate a new Zip file, and upload the new
Zip file back to your mainframe. Then run the appropriate DWUnzip script.
(See the HOD documentation for details on how to run that script on z/OS.)
The script will "explode" the Zip file into the zFS (or HFS) directories
and set the correct file permissions. Again, make a backup of at least the
original Zip file before you do this.

My explanation might make it sound more complicated than it is. It's not --
it's rather easy. Hope all that helps.
