A simple solution we use in our shop is to create the source physical files
with a longer record length than the IBM default. We use a record length of
132 (SRCDTA = 120), the maximum that SEU can easily handle with all data
viewable on a single screen.

In V6R1 IBM added the MARGINS parameter to the RUNSQLSTM, allowing you to
use SRCDTA up to a maximum length of 32754. When we create complex stored
procedures and UDFs we will always maintain them in RDP so we throw away the
SEU limitations. This allows us to write code that is much easier to read
and maintain.
