 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      remove object - Removes a value from a set-valued or single-valued
      attribute (including application-defined attributes) of an object
      entry

 SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]
      cdscp remove object object-name attribute-name [= attribute-value]

 ARGUMENTS    [Toc]    [Back]
      object name
                The full name of the object entry.

      attribute-name
                The name of a particular attribute.  Specify only one
                attribute at a time.  See the cds_attributes file for the
                list of attributes and corresponding data types that your
                application uses.

      attribute-value
                The value of a particular attribute.  The value of an
                application-defined attribute is dependent on the type of
                attribute.


 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      The remove object command removes a value from a set-valued or
      single-valued attribute (including application-defined attributes) of
      an object entry.  If you do not specify a value, the command removes
      the entire attribute. This command can delete attributes created by
      the add object and set object commands.  Usually, this task is
      performed through the client application.  See the OSF DCE
      Administration Guide for more information about attributes.

    Privilege Required    [Toc]    [Back]
      You must have write permission to the object entry.

 NOTE    [Toc]    [Back]
      This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may
      not be provided in future releases of DCE.
