True. Hamlet changed the king's orders to the English from "Kill Hamlet" to "Kill Rosencrantz and Guildenstern." He didn't have to do that; he could have changed the orders to "Give Hamlet some flowers".

What does Hamlet write in the murderous commission?
Claudius sent with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern an order to the king of England to have Hamlet put to death. I assume this is the "murderous commission" you are talking about. Hamlet finds it and substitutes another which is worded just the same, except it is Rosencrantz and Guildenstern who are to be killed, not Hamlet.
Are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern successful?
They are. If they weren't, Hamlet wouldn't have sent them to their death. They had the opportunity to betray him when they were out of his sight. It seems the king didn't completely take them into his confidence, though, so perhaps their loyalty wasn't total.
