Brian, there IS a PTF that alleviates this problem.  The PTF allows you
to use /INCLUDE instead of /COPY.  When SQL sees the /INCLUDE, it doesn't
open up the copy file.

You can use /INCLUDE in both RPG and SQLRPGLE code.  In SQLRPGLE code, you
would only use /COPY when you wanted SQL to see the code.

The PTFs are:
VRM420  SF62167 - available
VRM440  SF61918 - available within the next few days, I hope

The TGTRLS(*PRV) PTFs are not available yet.  SEU and CODE/400 will not
recognize /INCLUDE until
a future non-PTF release.
