        Thanks very much to all that replied.

        This is what worked.

             OVRDBF     FILE(TDEPTMAS) TOFILE(OIPAYFILES/TDEPTMAS) +

                          OPNSCOPE(*JOB)

 

             OVRDBF     FILE(EMPLOYEE) TOFILE(OIPAYFILES/EMPLOYEE) +

                          OVRSCOPE(*JOB) SHARE(*YES) OPNSCOPE(*JOB)

 

             OPNQRYF    FILE((OIPAYFILES/EMPLOYEE)) QRYSLT(*ALL) +

                          KEYFLD((HIREDT) (LNAME)) OPNSCOPE(*JOB)

 

             CALL       PGM(FMCGI/EMP001)

 

             CLOF       OPNID(EMPLOYEE)

Hi James -

>Have tried new, named, and caller.
>For OPNQRY OVRSCOPE used default, *JOB, and *ACTGRPDFN

OPNQRYF doesn't have OVRSCOPE.  Were you talking about OVRSCOPE on OVRDBF?

OPNQRYF *does* have OPNSCOPE and you should try OPNSCOPE(*JOB).

One of the confusing things is that an OPNQRYF ODP with 
OPNSCOPE(*ACTGRPDFN) will not scope from the default activation group to a 
*NEW activation group even though the associated OVRDBF with 
OVRSCOPE(*ACTGRPDFN) will.
