I've declared a data structure based on the DSPF that is already in
the F specs of my program. ( what I really wanted was to do a LIKEREC

I don't think external data structures based on display files are a
great idea ... or even if they will work at all ... primarily because
indicators are defined in the DDS and thus imported included in the
generated structure.

External data structures are intended to be based on physical files, not
device files.
