It wouldn't (well shouldn''t anyway!) help. The length check is always based on the maximum potential field size.

%TRIM(gNewPwd), perhaps?

Thanks Brian. I'll use that method, but it does seem like a bug.

I get the same error with regular RPG IV code. Looks like a bug on the
DSPLY op-code.

This worked for me:

D gNewPwd s 10a ccsid(37) Inz('Password')

D UserId S 10A Inz(*User)
D Msg S 40A

Msg = 'New |' + gNewPwd + '|';
Dsply Msg UserId;

(Build the message in a separate expression.)

HTH,
Brian.

I'm on v7r3, modifying an SQLRPGLE program with the following snippets:

0086.00 d gNewPwd s 10a ccsid(37)

0136.00 dsply ('New |' + gNewPwd + '|') 'PDOW';

The compiler listing shows:

*RNF7016 20 013600 Display length 64 greater than maximum
allowed of 52;
specification is ignored.

0007.09 GNEWPWD A(10) 008600D 012400M
012700M 013400
0007.10 CCSID(37) 013400 013600
013800 017800
0007.11 028100

Counting on my fingers and toes, I get 16 as the length to be
displayed on that statement. If I remove the CCSID(37), it's fine.

Is this a compiler bug or am I missing something?
