Rational Programming Patterns Interim Fix 13 for 9.6.2

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• As a DB Block is created with a specific type,
  the design element has a drop down list in the definition tab,
  named "block type".
  This drop down can be selected and the type modified.
  However, after the new type is saved, the -gg lines are not
  reflecting this change.
  

Local fix

• As a DB block is created with the wrong type, it must be
  re-created.
