Copy book of RPG INFO DS converted to free format but need add-on definitoins

We have a copy book that maps portions of the RPG PGMINFO DS (the PSDS).


There are times when I need data from the PSDS that is not mapped in our
copy book. We do not map the entire section (although I would like to
do that since we map past the 80 byte "performance" boundary anyway and
the system essentially brings in most all the PSDS data) for reasons I
do not remeber.



I was testing out a situation where I converted a version of our PSDS
copybook to free format d-specs and then attempted to tack on an
additional sub field. I had suspicions that this would not work and I
was correct.



So I am wondering without needing to re-work our PSDS and other RPG
INFDS copy books is there a way to tack on additional sub fields for
free form data structures? Mostly, in case we decide to go with
converting our copy book DS's so we can prepare ourselves for additional
work if its needed.



What I do with fixed format PSDS to get additional sub fields...
