modify:ABSTRACT:
	The "modify" task modifies an existing attribute of a device
	described in the Device Management tables.  You will be asked
	to supply the device alias, the attribute you wish to modify,
	and the new value of the attribute.

Form.modify:Alias:the Alias field
	This field names the alias of the device entry that is to be
	modified.
	
	The value must be a valid alias (i.e.  containing only
	alphanumeric characters, '.', '-', '_', and '$', and no more
	than 14 characters in length) and must already be defined in
	the device tables.  This field may not be blank.

Form.modify:Attribute:the Attribute field
	This field names the attribute to be modified in the
	definition of the previously named device alias.

	The value must be an attribute name (i.e.  containing only
	alphanumeric characters), '.', '-', '_', and '$', and no more
	than 14 characters in alias.  The attribute must already be
	defined for the named device.

Form.modify:Value:the Value field
	This field is the value of the attribute previously named.
	This field is validated if the value entered is "cdevice",
	otherwise the data in this field is not validated.
