RE: Adding another subfield to an externally defined data structu re.

Rob,

I know it's not as elegant or flexible but have you tried specifying the
buffer positions in the col definition?

Subject: Adding another subfield to an externally defined data structure.

 I want to do the following:
     D FLWORKREC       DS                  likerec(flworkr)
     D  col                          15p 4 overlay(flworkrec:39) dim(389)

However, when I try I get:
    36 D FLWORKREC       DS                  likerec(flworkr) 
    37 D  col                          15p 4 overlay(flworkrec:39)
dim(389)
======>                  aa                  bbbbbbb 
*RNF3703 20 a      003301  The subfield or parameter definition is not
specified
                           within a group. 
*RNF3601 20 b      003301  Keyword is not allowed for a field definition;
keyword
                           ignored. 

Is this what I need to do:
     D FLWORKREC       DS                  likerec(flworkr)
     D pDuh            s               *   inz(%addr(flworkrec))
     D duh             ds                  based(pDuh)
     D  col                          15p 4 overlay(duh:39) dim(389)
