I would go with Michael’s approach as the most efficient - except there is no need to define “string” as a field, simply name the DS itself as “string".
So my version would look like this:
D string DS
D array 1 Dim(37) Overlay(string)
You wouldn't even need the overlay, would you? I also have almost
completely gotten away from H-. F- and D-specs. I much prefer using
free-form declarations although they do present a challenge or two. :)
I just figured out a new one: how to overlay arrays inside of externally
described data structures (you know the ones - with lots of individual
fields all in a row).
I'll be writing about that one. It was fun.
