DATA-GEN %SUBARR(cust:1:theNumberOfRows)

How to question...

I've used YAJLDTAGEN a bit, but I'm not sure how to tackle this one.

I have a DS defined like this:

dcl-ds cust qualified dim(50) inz;
name varchar(40) inz('');
addr_line1 varchar(40) inz('');
addr_line2 varchar(40) inz('');
city varchar(40) inz('');
state varchar(3) inz('');
end-ds;

I'm using an SQL SELECT INTO statement to load up this data structure for up to 50 rows.

Then:
DATA-GEN cust %DATA(myStmf: 'doc=file output=clear countprefix=num_')
%GEN('YAJLDTAGEN');


Up to this point, my "base" DS has always been DIM(1), and I've prefixed embedded DS with "num_" prior to the embedded DS and specified the "countprefix" option.
But I'm not sure how to accomplish this with the "base" or "root" DS to get rid of the "empty" rows?
