how to increase the length of a string which has been defined in a base by using chain of command?

hi,

i  am trying to increase the length of a string outputRecord which is defined in VendOutPaymRecord_Nacha , so by using chain of command i want to increase the length of the outputRecord  string so that i can use strPoke() and insert data into the string.

i have included the initRecord() method where outputRecord  is being initialized as outputRecord  = strrep(#blank, 94) in the VendOutPaymRecord_Nacha  class. in the extension class i am using the initRecord() to change it to outputRecord  = strrep(#blank, 202). but it is not working. as soon as it encounters the strPoke() which again is in the VendOutPaymRecord_Nacha class the size changes back to 94. can you suggest a way to retain the size of the outputRecord to 202  in the chain of command class.

    [tag:NACHARecLen] length is explicitly define in the class 94 after executing all extension system will execute base method so in any case [tag:NACHARecLen] will always be 94 simply declare a new type with new length and pass that record using next keyword.

    hi,

    the method where im trying to increase the length does not take parameters. so i cannot pass anything through that.

    If you can share your code maybe, then I can suggest something

    Method signature has to be same to apply chain of command.
