Plea from a old lost RPG/400 war horse

Hi y'all,
I've been dropped into RPG LE after many years of not coding.  I'm trying to
make a one line change to an existing SQLRPGLE program.  Just trying to
change the value of a field with a move op.  The source has a H spec with
BNDDIR and a value (gulp!)  when I do a 14 from good old wrkmbrpdm, it does
not like the dftactgrp setting.   I poked around and found the crtbndrpg
command (double gulp!).  When I run it with *no in dftactgrp, I get errors
on a  /exec sql.  Its a nice little sql statement, and I don't think it
deserves such harsh treatment.  I looked at the archives at midrange.com,
and found I'm way behind on lotta stuff.  Any general (especially thumbnail)
or specific advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
