Re: Issue in OVRPRTF...

I am assuming that the print file in PRG66 is "PRT1", otherwise the override
is
useless. If it is PRT1, my next question is if there is a difference between
PRG65 and
PRG66 in the activation group they run in? I cannot explain why (but I know
some
on this list can), but I have found that when I had in one clp an ovrprtf
before a SQLRPGLE with a report followed by an ovrprtf before a RPGIII
report (both using print file qsysprt), I had to delete the current override
after the SQLRPGLE, and then do the override for 2nd pgm. Both pgms compiled
with v5r2 compiler defaults.  So I would add a "DLTOVR  PRT1" before the
ovrprtf before calling PRG66.
