RE: Printer -file question

[Steve Morrison <smorrison@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As others have suggested, the printer file needs to be changed (CHGPRTF), or
overridden at run time (OVRPRTF). Before you do a CHGPRTF, make sure that
the printer file is not used by other programs.

Subject: Printer -file question

I have declared the printer file to be as follows:
FPRINTERF  O    F  188        PRINTER OFLIND(*INOF)      

The record length of printer file used to be 132 now I changed it to 188 to
accomodate more fields.
After proper compilation of the porgram , I was trying to see but still it
is showing the length as 132.It is not showing the additional field PRODUCT.
Can someone shed light on this where I must be going wrong?Thanks in
advance,
