Hi,

If you need to change the length of the field after you have created a table, you only need to change it in the domain. If the domain is used in more than one table, the change is automatically propagated to all fields that use that domain.

For example, if the business analysts requested that you increase the length of your person name field from 12 to 15 characters, you would change the length in the zpersname domain. When you activate your change, the lengths of all name fields based upon this domain (in the customer, vendor, and employee tables) will also change.

Hi,

The field name length cannot be increased. It is defined by the structure DD03P.
