Hi!

Why does IBM has changed the default value for the activation group of
created programs from *NEW to *ENTMOD?

I've created my tools with default value for ACTGROUP. Until V5R3 this was
*NEW. Resources for those tools had been relaesed after the tool-programm
ended.  Now with *ENTMOD, resources are released when QILE ends. This
behaviour causes some problems when more than one tool-program is on the
call-stack or when a program ends abnormaly.
