XEDIT BLAH BLAH A (WIDTH 250
SET VERIFY ON 1 250

Then, use the (undocumented) feature that you can imbed CTLCHARs directly
in the active data file in lieu of SET RESERVED. (See the big Rexx book
from McGraw-Hill for more about this feature, or just look at coding
examples in HELP or RDRLIST.) Make sure you have set a CTLCHAR to start
another field out in col 249 or something, so that the line will wrap.
