The Open List of Activation Group Attributes (QWVOLAGP) API will give you a
list of activation groups for a given job.

Call it, then use the

        Get List Entries (QGYGTLE)
        Find Entry Number in List (QGYFNDE)
        Close List (QGYCLST)

APIs to process the list.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
