Hi Peter,
I've not noticed that before, but I have just seen it. In my case the fields defined with the like clause are doubled in size, and only for the DB fields that are defined on two logicals over the same file.
Is your clside19 field defined twice or three times on different F-spec lines?

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Strange issue in RDi 9.0.1
Hi all,
I don't know if any of you have encountered this before, but I noticed some strange behaviour in Rdi.
When editing source, you can hover over a variable or constant, and get a tooltip.
I have a standalone work variable defined like a database field:
D wClside S like(clside19) inz
If I hover over clside19, it displays "Character (15)", which is correct.
But if I hover over wClside, it displays "Character (45)", which is obviously wrong.
I noticed this on several other (alphanumeric) variables, whereby the incorrect length is always 3 times the correct one.
Strangely enough, not all variables have this problem. For example in the same source, the following work variable is correctly identified as "Character (8)", same as the database field:
D wNbrKin S like(nbrkin02) inz
Clearing the caches didn't solve it.
It's obviously an Rdi problem, because the compile listing shows the correct length:
WCLSIDE A(15) 69D 3184 3212 3634M
3636 3639 3641M 3647
3661 3662 3666
Has anyone else noticed this strangeness?
Thanks in advance.
