Can you not use the same field name twice with different lengths, then condition which one to use by an indicator set according to display size.

That's the part I remember (and I thought I implied that in the original question).

But this is a situation in which the display consists largely of single fields running nearly the full display width.

The manuals are full of examples of adjusting the POSITION of a field according to the active display size. But I can't find ANYTHING about either adjusting the field LENGTH according to the active display size, or selecting an alternate RECORD according to the active display size.

And THAT is what I need to do. Because most of the lines of this display contain a single field, running nearly the full width of the screen.
