Re: OVRDBF from RPG

["Joe Teff" <jteff19@xxxxxxx>]

I'm assuming that you are compiling the program with the
default activation group. The override scopes to the call
level if you are using the default activation group, which
means the override is only in affect while your program
is running. It is "removed" when your program ends.
