OPNQRYF/Activation Group Problem

[Mark Garton <mgarton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

I have following in a CL PGM:

                                                                  
   OVRDBF     FILE(EMJFMT) TOFILE(*LIBL/FILEA) +             
                SHARE(*YES) OPNSCOPE(*JOB)         
                                                                  
                                                                  
   OPNQRYF    FILE((FILEA) (FILEB) (FILEC)) +                
                FORMAT(EMJFMT) QRYSLT('COMP *EQ "' +          
                *CAT &COMP *CAT '"' ) KEYFLD((EMP#)) +
                JFLD((FILEA/EMP#A FILEB/EMP#B *EQ) +        
                (FILEB/EMP#B FILEC/EMP#C))
   
   CALL       PGM(PGMA)      
                                            


PGMA (an RPGIV program) uses EMJFMT and is compiled with DFTACTGRP(*no).

Until today this worked.  I made a change to PGMA and now I am getting a
lvlchk error on FILEA when PGMA is called.  FILEA, FILEB, FILEC and
EMJFMT have not been changed.  There is only one object EMJFMT.  

After trying a few things I recompiled my program with DFTACTGRP(*yes). 
Now the program will run.  What gives? Our shop standard is
DFTACTGRP(*NO) and would like to keep my program that way.  What do I
have to do to use DFTACTGRP(*NO).  Thanks.
 

Mark
