RE: Advantages of Service program

Do you mean to say that the program objects need to be updated or
re-created everytime a module(directly included in the program object)
is changed. And this updation or re-creation is not necessary if the
same module is present inside the service program and this service
program in turn is embedded inside the program object.

For ex:
I have two program objects and they contain the following
modules/service programs.
When I change MOD3, I need to recreate PGM2 again but that is no needed
for PGM1. Am I Right ??

PGM1 includes the following
-----------
MOD1
MOD2
SRVPGM1
-----------


PGM2 includes the following
------------
MOD1    
MOD2    
MOD3            
------------


SRVPGM1 includes the following
------------
MOD3
MOD4
MOD5
------------

maintenance, it is bound by reference not copy.
So if you change one module from your service pgm, all pgm using this
module will work with the new object.

Other answers will come soon i think
