Sorry for the non-OT postings. I'm sure this posting is interfering
with all the wonderful post-election rhetoric going on :-)

How can my app (Cobol program) change the length of a field
programmatically via VCHANGEFIELD ?

I have a field in a form that is defined in Formspec as CHAR for a length
of 40.

Regardless of whether this form is a parent or child form I have a need
(depending on the situation) to change the CHAR 40 to CHAR 60.

Can this be done with VCHANGEFIELD or do I have to create a new form
that defines the field as CHAR 60 ?

TIA,
Brian Donaldson.
