LEN(length)
The LEN keyword is used to define the length in characters of a Data Structure or character, UCS-2 or graphic definition. It is valid for Data Structure definitions, and for Prototype, Prototyped Parameter, Standalone Field and Subfield definitions where the type entry is A (Alphanumeric), C (UCS-2), or G (Graphic).
Note: In free-form definitions,
the LEN keyword is only used for
data-structure definitions.
For other definition types, the length of the
item is specified as a parameter for the
data-type keyword.
