===Disable a uct_list database measurement===
You cannot really disable data in the UCT_LIST output. What you can do using IPL is to clear the complete result entry for a given measurement, for example:

  $ ipl
  /read
    -name                      in
    -filename                  default_file_name
  /db_scanco_activate
    -write                     true
  /db_clear_eval
    -input                     in

Then UCT_LIST might still report the "disabled" measurement, leaving only the few first meta-data columns non empty. The rest would be cleared.

I must bring your attention to the fact that this sequence is used a lot on XtremeCT I scripts, for the cortical porosity for example.
This means that on XT-I, the UCT_LIST content is highly unstable, as it was used back then while UPAT_LIST was not able to handle those results.
In the future, when new applications come they may delete/overwrite the UCT_LIST entry for a measurement. 
That is the rationale for using the TXT output in the RESULTS directory, that at least keeps track of past analyses. 
As long as you have a single application on XT-II going through UCT_LIST, calling results on demand with it is fine. Later it might come complicated.
