RE: Changing a PF






Well obviously, you have to add the field to the source.  Then you execute
the command CHGPF, specify that new source to change the file.


Basically the command, moves the data to a TEMP file, then recompiles the
source file (as you would for creating a new file), then maps the data 
back
from the temp file to the new updated file.

It just does all the steps for you.
