Answered my own question with a quick and dirty test. Yes you can. Here is old school DS that seems to work:
d showarea ds inz
d showar n dim(15)
d showar01 n overlay(showarea)
d showar02 n overlay(showarea:2)
d showar03 n overlay(showarea:3)
d showar04 n overlay(showarea:4)
d showar05 n overlay(showarea:5)
d showar06 n overlay(showarea:6)
d showar07 n overlay(showarea:7)
d showar08 n overlay(showarea:8)
d showar09 n overlay(showarea:9)
d showar10 n overlay(showarea:10)
d showar11 n overlay(showarea:11)
d showar12 n overlay(showarea:12)
d showar13 n overlay(showarea:13)
d showar14 n overlay(showarea:14)
d showar15 n overlay(showarea:15)
If there is a better way, please let me know!
Thanks!!!!

Subject: Named Indicators in an Array
Never tried this before so I need a little assistance.
I have a screen that has 15 fields that load into array. Length=40, DIM=15. I have display/hide named indicators in my display file. Like SHOWTEXT01, SHOWTEXT02, etc. Can I put those indicators into an array via a data structure so I can say SHOWTEXT(X) = *ON within a loop? I'm not sure this can be done.
Thanks!!!
