I guess the question I would have would be why would you want to deactivate
them?

I would like to "free" resources that may have been allocated by service
programs, after a period of inactivity. Plus, as Rob questioned, a newer
version of a service program may be available.

By deactivate them, do you mean reload them? You don't have to deactivate
them. You can just run load again.

Calling QleActBndPgm() a second time doesn't "reload" a service program
that's already active. It just returns a flag indicating that it's already
active.

Also, make sure you are using QleActBndPgmLong or you are periodically

going to get crashes.

Thanks, I'll check that out.
