When you individually list modules and service programs on the CRTPGM and
CRTSRVPGM commands, you might list more components than necessary. In
these case, the binder dutifully copies all the listed components into the 
resulting
program. When you simply name a binding directory, the binder uses only those
components it needs.
It's still easy to lose track of which modules and service programs we need for
a specific program, and where to find them on our system. Sometimes we change
our database structure. How can we recompile all of our programs automatically
when we must specify modules and service programs? This is where a SINGLE
binding directory is useful.

Sometimes we must change our database structure. How can we recompile all of our
programs  automatically when we must remove service programs from the binding
directory? This is where a SINGLE binding directory is useful.
