When I look into my coplib using COBEDIT, I see some fields defined as Pic X(1). I needed them to be PIC X(2) so I decided to use Adager's Change Item command, but when it shows me the current definiton for these fields, each are already defining it as a PIC X(2). Why would listing the dataset in COBEDIT show a different definition than I see when I try to change the item in Adager?

Also, I have a field that I would like to define as S9(6)V99 in my copylib (which is currently Pic X(8)), but Adager won't let me use S9. I looks like I am suppose to use J, but I am not sure what S9(6)V99 will equate to using the J character (or why Adager won't let me use S9. Any suggestions? Perhaps I don't need to use adager, but I am not sure what else to use. Thanks!
