   Oddly your message appears as a reply to mine, inside of a old 
message thread.. and even that message thread was within another old 
thread.

   I think you will need to be much more explicit in what you want to 
accomplish.  But if one wants a program to be able to effect the same as 
what Display/Alter/Dump can do to /alter/ storage...  Well, you are 
pretty much out of luck.

   The LIC does not give access to the MI to generically manipulate any 
storage like the menu interface to the D/A/D.  That is a primary part of 
ensuring integrity of the system.  This is true irrespective of release 
or security level.  An MI program can only modify /spaces/ to which it 
obtains an address.  If an address to an /object/ is obtained, if the 
object does not have a space, there is no access available to the object 
except the supported methods.  The supported methods are those MI 
instructions that are provided to perform against the /object/ by its 
[resolved] system pointer.  There is no MI instruction that enables 
addressing into the object itself, only into its space.
