Re: Change PF Field text?

Change your DDS then do a CHGPF. This will recreate the file. If only the
text/column heading changes, the format level ID shouldn't change and you
shouldn't have to recompile.

Thanks,

I want to up change the field text description of a DDS physical without
recreating the file and recompiling the associated programs.
Is this possible?  SQL,? API?
And would I have to do the same for the logicals or would they change when
the physical Changes?
field name:       Unuse1
field text: Unused field1
type:       Packed
Length:           5  0

It's not the destination that counts in life it's the journey. The journey
with the people we love is all that really matters. Such a simple truth so
easily forgotten.
