Joep,

the only way I have found to get OVRDBF to consistently do what I want, ie
the OLD way, is to use OVRSCOPE(*CALLLVL)

That is the way we use it in our applications, when the CL does the override and the OPNQRYF and then calls the RPG. But in utility programs I often do overrides from within an RPG program through QCMDEXC. When I call QCMDEXC directly I could use *CALLLVL, because QCMDEXC somehow does not count as a call level. But when I use a wrapper around QCMDEXC, the wrapper becomes the call level; with *CALLLVL the override has disappeared when the wrapper ends. In that situation I use the default.
