Jim,

You can emulate a field reference file using the WITH NO DATA clause.

CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEE AS
(SELECT EMPLOYEE_ID, NAME, etc. FROM FIELDREF)
WITH NO DATA

Not sure if it was V5R1 or V5R2 it was introduced.

The other thing that DDS _can_ bring to the table is using field reference
files, if you design your files that way.  Not do-able in SQL if I
remember right.
