But I agree with Barbara Morris in that it's a poor, lazy choice for
developers...

"Using QILE is the worst choice you can make.
There's nothing inherently wrong with QILE, but just because
it's the default, it's often the activation group being used by
sloppily-written applications and programs which might
interfere with your app.
- They might reclaim QILE
- They might issue overrides, or use your overrides
- If they have serious storage corruption issues, they might
interfere with the static storage of your application. "

I prefer MYCOMPANY as the "default" activation group to be used...


Ha! I should have read the whole thread before I posted another message about why I think using QILE is a bad idea. I had forgotten the big reason, about something possibly reclaiming QILE.
