Barbara,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but surely you can use:

C Eval MyCmd = 'DSPFD FILE(XYXYXYZ) ' +
C 'OUTPUT(*PRINT)'
C CallP(E) QCMDEXC(MyCmd:%Len(MyCmd))

whether or not you specify Varying. The second parameter to QCMDEXC defines
the length of the first *parameter*, not the length of the *data* in that
parameter - QCMDEXC will ignore any trailing spaces in the first parameter.

I remarked on this a while back, when pointing out that people were adding
totally unnecessary %trim's in their code...

And if you define MyCmd as VARYING, you can simplify further by
eliminating the %trim:
C Eval MyCmd = 'DSPFD FILE(XYXYXYZ) ' +
C 'OUTPUT(*PRINT)'
C CallP(E) QCMDEXC(MyCmd:%Len(MyCmd))
