Hi Birgitta,
That seems to work indeed, although I needed to correct SclLen to int(5).
I thought the overlay keyword was not allowed in free-format.
Apparently you cannot use the datastructure itself on the overlay, but a subfield is allowed.
Thanks!

Betreff: Free-format question
Hi group,
I've been busy converting a program with D-specs to full free-format, but I've encountered an issue which I cannot seem to solve.
Does anybody know how to convert this DS into a Decl-ds structure?
D DPA_Template_T Ds
D SclTyp 1a
D SclLen 5i 0
D DecPos 3i 0 Overlay( SclLen: 1 )
D DecLen 3i 0 Overlay( SclLen: 2 )
D Rsv 10i 0 Inz
The overlay of the subfield is giving me headaches.
Thanks in advance.
