The field starts in position 33, I cannot change the data area as it is part of 
a package so I just need that little bit changed.

Hi Steve

I was going to say the same thing as Paul, but he beat me to it :-)

All the best

Hi Steve,

get the boot ready :-)

The data area is a character data area so the VALUE needs to be a
character
field.

Try -
PGM
            DCL        VAR(&NUM) TYPE(*DEC) LEN(9 0) +
                         VALUE(1)
            DCL        VAR(&NUMCHAR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(9)

            CHGVAR   &NUMCHAR    &NUM
            CHGDTAARA  DTAARA(AMBISDATA (33 9)) VALUE(&NUMCHAR)
    ENDPGM

HTH

Paul
