Well it seems like if you need more than 7 columns you should set them all
up and them set the DIM (x) to the right number of amounts.

I'd simply the data structure definition as follows:

D Amounts_DS DS
D Amt01 7P 0
D Amt02 7P 0
D Amt03 7P 0
D Amt04 7P 0
D Amt05 7P 0
D Amt06 7P 0
D Amt07 7P 0
D AmtArray 7P 0 Overlay(Amounts_DS) Dim(7)

When I tried this at V5R4, SQL generated code that put the first seven
columns into AMT01-AMT07, and then an 8th column into AmtArray... which
set
all of AmtArray to the same value (zero) since a move to an array without
index is a move to all elements of the array (and then I got an error
about
wrong number of columns).
