SRM 5.0 - Inactive versions of BOR Objects

Hi Sue,
You will usually have an 'inactive' and an 'active' version of your code -
and yes I've seen the same as Kjetil on a system for the same reason.

Go into SE38 and create a prog:
REPORT  ZMPTEST.
write 'Hello...'.

Generate and execute. Now, make some change:
REPORT  ZMPTEST.
write 'Is there anybody out there?'.

at this point do NOT generate, just click the 'test' icon - you will see
the result of the second 'version'.

Save and exit to front screen of SE38, execute (do NOT generate) - it'll
complain about inactive versions - hit continue. Result: 'Hello...'. Click
display prog and test again... you get the picture.

As long as you haven't activated everything fully there will be different
versions from different viewpoints, something which confuses me as well so
I usually activate everything when there's any doubt (commenting out any
dodgy code and adding TODO's if necessary).

Hope that helps,
Mike
