I'm in the middle of creating a test account by using uvbackup/uvrestore from 
an HP-UX system over to an XP system.  It's mostly working, but there are some 
issues with NT file name conversions and cataloged programs that need to be 
recompiled.  I have a little program that will fix these things up within an 
account, just thought it would be nice to put it within a loop and run it 
through all the accounts that make up the application.  Now, I can see that 
perhaps that's not the right way to go about this.  I'm currently looking into 
how to do a full recompile and recatalog of all the valid stuff in the VOC.

Thanks to everyone for sending along hints and warnings.

Don,

Why do you want to go account hoping in the middle of a program, this can
lead you into all kinds of problems.  If you need access to files in another
account set a pointer to the file and stay in the same account.

Thanks for the reminder.  I've um, tested this myself on my development
machine....  And no, it's not pretty!  The application I support uses almost
a dozen accounts to service the main account.  Potholes are everywhere as
far as duplicate names in the voc.

I was hoping there was a "magic" command that would dig through what is
already cataloged, and recompile, recatalog based on the original.  I'll
have to see about doing this the old fashioned way with a program.  

This brings up another question.  I can get the list of accounts out of the
UV.ACCOUNT file, is there a way to do account hoping from within a basic
program?

Thanks,
