As per my understanding,we can not change length of a field
in a physical file using command CHGPF.Using this command
we can change number of records and so on.
If we want to change length of a field then we have to
change its source where we previously defined the size of
the field and then requires a compilation.After compiling it
we delete all logicals based on this physical file then
file is re-build in respective file groups from where
prorams use records.
Please let me know if there is any issues!

Q:Hi all,i want accurate answer with code using in built functions.please sent me code as soon as posible. I have program nmed PGM1 which '' RETRIEVE Current production date''should correctly default the production date for the user who is issuing raw materials to the manufacturing.The production date can be different from the celendra date. However, the program does not make the correct adjustment for all manufacturing plants. there is a parameter which determines the production start time e.g. 07:00 if the system time precedes this,the program subtracts one from the celendra day.This work fine when the celendar day starts after production day as it does in England,the system should be adding one to the celendar day during the overlap. unfortunately the program was desined to assumed the celendar day always starts before the production day. Change required in the program: Change the PROGRAM PGM1 to use the new parrameter to decide whether to add or subtract 1 from the celendar day when determining the production date.
