Re: Mass ILE recompile question.

I guess I asked my question the wrong way.  I was using the file change as
an example, but my real question is:  If I change a module, how will I know
which programs use that module so I can rebind those programs?  In the case
of a file change, you may need to recompile many modules.  How would you do
a mass rebinding of these modules to the appropriate programs.  I understand
that there is the UPDPGM command, but even that asks what service programs
are used (default is *none).

We are looking at creating a CL to manage this for us, but I was wondering
if anyone had a better idea.

I've had limited success searching through the archives for information.
Maybe I'm using the 'search' feature incorrectly, but I end up wading
through tons of stuff without finding what I'm looking for.  Any tips on how
to successfully use this would be helpful too.

Thanks again!
