RE: How does one rename a field in RPG400 that is a output field only?

I know I could make that change, but the DSPF is still used in the ILE
program which also runs stand alone and I prefer not t make that change.
Ironically, I have had to duplicate the DSPF and change field names to 6
characters etc.

Unfortunately for developers after me, the code is not self-documenting and
I know other developers will not add comments as to what changes they make.

Darryl,

You could always make it an input/output field ('B', combined with CHGINPDFT
and DSPATR(PR) behaves remarkably as an output field).
