I am very interested in this topic because I don't have a good
understanding of service programs and activation groups.
Jon's answer surprises me because I have thought each system i
job receives a "new" copy of a service program, and that activation
groups are "a job within a job", and therefore expected the >new<
activation group of the external RPG program would get a "new"
copy of the service program.
Thanks for the opportunity!

My questions are:
When the service program calls the external RPG program, should the activation group change from QILE to a new activation group?
Yes - it will change to *New
When the external program calls back into the service program, will a new copy of the service program be loaded ... or will it call back into the original service program that invoked the external program?
Original copy should be used.
