Hi all

I have this doubt ; suppose i have this scenario:

PGM_A execute OVRDBF LIBA/FILEA and call PGM_B; as also PGM_B use FILEA
and don't execute any OVRDBF (to FILEA) , PGM_B open FILEA in wich library ?
LIBA or *LIBL ???

Similar scenario but using EXTFILE instead of OVRDBF

PGM_A open FILEA using EXTFILE = 'LIBA/FILEA' and call PGM_B; PGM_B open
FILEA in wich library ? LIBA or *LIBL ???

Thanks in advance

Gio
