That works! I assumed that "+7" would be interpreted the same as "7". But it uses the "+" to extend.
So logical and so simple - thanks!!

From the reference manual:
A FIELD3 R +7
Put the +7 in the length position.

Is it possible to reference a field in DDS but add 2 bytes to the
length?
For example:
SUBTOTAL R REFFLD(ExtendedPrice)
Length(+2)
Wishful thinking I'm sure.
