Answers...
I got two answers which are quoted below. The first one is the
procedure I found by googling and this did not work even though I have
double-checked that the value I set for the ORGANIZATIONNAME is indeed
what I want it to be.
But, when I use Gerd Knops' method (the second one below), it works.
However, I have never run across this before and I cannot find any
documentation pointing to this method.
Is there some great mystery here -- are both methods supposed to work
or does one depend on the other?
Thanks for the help in both responses though.

Phil,
is this what you tried:
defaults write com.apple.xcode PBXCustomTemplateMacroDefinitions
'{ ORGANIZATIONNAME = "MyCompany"; }'
to find your setting,
$defaults find PBXCustom
Found 1 keys in domain 'com.apple.Xcode': {
PBXCustomTemplateMacroDefinitions = {
ORGANIZATIONNAME = MyCompany;
};
}
I'm sure there was a thread on the cocoa list or Xcode list in the
last five or six months in which someone had highlighted several
different ways to do this.

OK, I am fairly new to Xcode and Cocoa programming and I want to
change the __MyCompanyName__ template macro definition.
So, I google this question, find answers, and try it out. It did
not work. So, is there something different in today's Xcode that
means the procedure for changing __MyCompanyName__ is different. I
think the most recent entry I found (with a date) was 2005 or so.
The procedure I tried was to set ORGANIZATIONNAME in the
PBXCustomTemplateMacroDefinitions key of the Xcode plist. First, I
could not find it by looking at the plist. So, I tried the
defaults command from the shell and this seemed to work but no
change in behavior on Xcode in spite of cycling Xcode and trying a
number of other things.
So, How do you change __MyCompanyName__?
In AddressBook.app, define your address and then use "Make This My
Card" in the Card menu.
