Mark,

Read the fine print "field lengths are different". It didn't say new
fields were added to the end of the file. Do you REALLY want to use
LVLCHK(*NO) on that, or was it you and not rodents who ate the pretty
purple mushrooms growing on my compost pile?

The only change to QADSPOBJ I see between V5R3 and V5R4 is fields added to
the end of the record format. IBM seems to have adhered to their
time-tested policy of only changing system-supplied OUTFILEs by adding
fields, and specifying LVLCHK(*NO) as the default on the model files. If
the OUTFILE in question is really QADSPOBJ it would appear the problem is
not a field changed, but a field added. LVLCHK setting either way doesn't
matter. It would seem the code processing the new fields added for V5R4
needs to be conditional based on the run-time OS version.
OP needs to provide more details about the OUTFILE in use and the
specifics
exception that makes the application 'bomb'.
