Hi,

Change your DDS-Source and then CHGPF will do the job for you.
But you have to recompile all RPG programs that use this file.

CHGPF FILE(MYLIB/MYPHYSF)
      SRCFILE(MYSRCLIB/QDDSSRC)
      SRCMBR(MYPHYSF)

Betreff: Increasing Field Length Issues

Hi All,



Is there an easy way to increase a field width on a PF without having to
delete all the LFs associated and recompile all PFs and LFs?  I have a
field that needs to be increased from four to six characters (which is
conveniently in the middle of the DDS), but from what I understand, I
need to either delete all associated PFs and LFs and recompile
everything or set the compile to LVLCHK(*NO) and hope something doesn't
blow up.



This table contains data that I cannot lose, so can someone suggest the
best way to handle this situation?



Thanks!



Brian.
