using cpanel.  Recently, I tried changing the username for my account.  That
had my site (my drupal site) unreachable, with an "unable to select
database," error.  Well, I realized that the problem was that my cpanel
interface adds a prefix to the database, as in myoldaccountid_drpl1

when I changed the config file, which is settings.php in the sites/default
directory.  I'm perplexed as to why that didn't work.  I looked all through
my site and could not find any other place where the actual name of the
database was hard-coded. Question:   Is there some other place where the
actual database name will be found in the code?

No.  Which user name for which account, this is unclear.
