Is ALWDLT(*NO) to *YES possible?

I have a client that has a file with the ALWDLT(*NO) (allow delete records)
option set to *NO. I need to change this attribute to *YES so I can delete
some garbage records, not to mention the fact that they have 10 years worth
of records in the file, and they only really need the last month of so of
records to be retained.  CHGPF doesn't permit it.
It's an old S/36E "flat" file so there's no DDS to recreate it and cpyf,
etc.  It has two fields K00001 and F00001 in it.
Man, oh man, I do dislike this S36E stuff!  Yikes!
