All of our customers (50+) order this PTF every release.  ILE is being used
in a "tentative" mode - no re-writes, but a few new programs are deployed
here and there.  Nobody ever used the OPM "shared open" model, so the more
granular shares that ILE offers don't come into play.

My suggestion: Always display it the old way, but if there's a mix of AG's,
pop a message at the bottom of the screen to that effect, reminding the
programmer that she may want to check the scoping data...

Example of "mixed" open:
Scope      Activation Group     
*ACTGRPDFN 0000000002 *DFTACTGRP
*ACTGRPDFN 0000001963 QILE      
*ACTGRPDFN 0000001963 QILE      
*ACTGRPDFN 0000000002 *DFTACTGRP
