Choice program problem on a QUAL stmt

I have the following test command:

CMD PROMPT('test file driven prompting')
PARM KWD(FILE) TYPE(FILE1) MIN(1) PROMPT('File:' 1)
FILE1: QUAL TYPE(*NAME) LEN(10) MIN(1) CHOICE(*PGM) +
CHOICEPGM(TSTCHCPGM)
QUAL TYPE(*NAME) LEN(10) DFT(*LIBL) +
SPCVAL((*LIBL)) PROMPT('Library:')

But I am finding that I cannot get the choice program to invoke when I
place a "?" in the file name field. If I have a stand alone PARM for
the file name then the choice program will work correctly. Is there
something special about having a choice program on the first QUAL
statement?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Paul
