Re: ILE Binding Confusion

[Gary Guthrie <GaryGuthrie@xxxxxxxx>]

I suspect that you need to reclaim the activation group. You probably
ran some tests, made the change, and then ran the tests noticing no
change. Am I right?

If so and you're running in an activation group you can reclaim, do so
and check the results. If you can't reclaim, sign off and back on and
try.
