Although the field is a *USRDFN field it could be a external definition
defined fields.
I would suggest defining another field in length of 49, include it in the
data model which has the display subfile, replace it on the screen. Most
AS/SET has Action Subroutine call "A1FMTDATA    - Format Data for display"
You should be able to get same the value at this subroutine. Other SQL
intense pgm is little different.
If you need more detail than post version of BPCS, program name, and field
name. Or feel free to call me.
Good luck.

I am trying to modify the length of a *USRDFN field from length of 50 to 49.
The field is not part of a data model but when I do a Y in the Char field
beside the field define in the action subroutine where it is defined and go
to the "Field Characteristics" screen it won't accept the change.  I put a
"-" sign in the field data type then put 49 in the Length and press enter--I
get an error that says "Invalid Field Type".

Any pointers?
