Which PDL changes force QDesign Recompile?

[John MacLerran]

Thanks, Bob,
'logonids and the equivalent...'
Does adding a 'permit asc to read record blah'  fall into that?
I need to add an ASC permission to read a file and was wondering if I'd 
have to recompile everything or just the dictionary. I've added logonids 
to an ASC without recompile, but never an ASC permission to a file.  I 
just tried it (i.e. created the new dictionary and attempted to access 
the file), and it seemed to work, but I didn't want to put the new 
dictionary out if it would cause problems with the rest of the users.

Thanks!
