Today was a *duh* sort of day.  Perhaps someone can explain this to me:

I have a physical file with one key in a library.  I have for some time used a 
CL program to CPYF to copy it into QTEMP, OVRDBF, and then populate, use, and 
discard it.

For design reasons the users would like the file presented in another order 
which would mean 3 keys on the file.  No big deal, right?

For some reason it will only give me the old 1-key variety when I CPYF it from 
the CL.  I did a WRKOBJ *ALL/fil* *ALL and deleted everything i could find with 
a name even remotely like it.  I've recompiled the files and the programs.  I 
even copied the CL to another name and deleted all of the extra lines.  
Everything works the way I expect excepting the one CL program that I really do 
want to use.  

What I really don't understand is where on earth it is getting the instruction 
to copy the file with just one key, since all those instances are deleted.
