After reviewing the archives, I found that I had ask this question previously in 2015.
I understand that I can change the behavior of RDi 9.6.0.6 to open a member in browse mode, and then change it to edit mode.
The sequence of events:
1. Open a RPGLE member for edit
2. Make changes to the member
3. Compile the member
4. Review error list, and select an error
5. If the error occurred within a /COPY source member
5a. The /COPY member is opened in EDIT mode regardless of how the preferences are set
6. I made changes to the /COPY member, not realizing that the production copy was what RDi had opened
7. After discovering the situation, I had to restore the production source member
In 2015 the recommendation was to change the authority on the production source file as a way to limit the damage in this situation.
I was hoping that I had missed a method of preventing this from happening, using RDi, rather than the authority approach.
