Is it possible to declare that variable contains ASCII data?

All,

I was hoping to be able to do something like the following:

d ascii_txt s 16383a ccsid(819)
But I get a
RNF3819: The CCSID keyword is not valid with the specified data type.


Also tried
d ascii_txt s 16383c ccsid(819)
But I get a
RNF3818: CCSID(819) is not valid for field ASCII_TXT.

and
d ascii_txt s 16383g ccsid(819)
But I get a
RNF0566: Keyword CCSID is not valid for a graphic definition when
CCSID(*GRAPH:*IGNORE) is specified.
I added
h ccsid(*graph:*src)
But now I'm back to
RNF3818: CCSID(819) is not valid for field ASCII_TXT.


Given the relationship between 819 and 1208, I also tried using
ccsid(1208) on all the above, if the same results....

Is there no way to tag a variable as containing ASCII data?

Thanks!
