 >> I believed that lost RPG source was, indeed, lost RPG source. Can you expand

If you use the *LIST option a  copy of the listing is saved with the *PGM
object.  Through the use of the debug APIs it is possible to retrieve this and
therefore possible to re-create the source file.  I believe one of the magazines
(news/400 ?) published a program a while back that would do just that.
There are also third party tools (check out www.sourceretrieval.com) that can
retrieve RPG source from the program object.

None of these of course should be regarded as an alternative to a decent back-up
policy!!
