How do I clip a vary length field?

So, I have this
XSql1024 S 9216 Varying
Based(SqlPtr)

Upper S Like(XSQL1024)

and later some code does
SqlPtr = %addr(EZDQLSTL) + 2
Upper = XSQL1024

The EZ* fields are from QSYSINC/QRPGLESRC EZDAEP coming in the exit
QIBM_QZDA_SQL2

I need to clip XSQL1024 so it will always fit in Upper. I am getting SQL
strings in excess of 9k.

What are my options?
