RE: why can't I add a subfield to likeds

Scott: As mentioned before I meant to use likeds not likerec.  However,
likeds also doesn't allow adding more subfield.

I need to add subfield because of the following:
1) I'm trying to use the QMHT0100 ds from QSYSINC/QRPGLESRC/QMHLJOBL
copy book.  The 2nd to the last field is a varying length field and is
not being declared in the ibm copy book.

2) I'm hoping to be able to use likeds and add the last desire two
subfields to the likeds datastructure. See below on what I try to
achieve:

 * receive message api return data structure 
 /Copy qsysinc/Qrpglesrc,qmhljobl             
 * QMHLJOBL api message selection information         
D msi             ds                  likeds(QMHT0100)
D  QMHIFR00                     10i 0                 
D  QMHCMQ00                      1
