Scott, I shall try to help you with your memory! The article was in AS400 news or something like that about 8 years ago. It was called something like <so you think you knew everything about ovrdbf>. It described the effects of using ovrdbf on the same file at the same or different levels of the call stack, and with different ovrscope parameters, and how options would be combined, replaced or ignored.

Maybe it wasn't you after all and I just presumed it to be yours as it was so interesting. Apologies to the real author if I was wrong.
