Answer Wiki:

DDS is Data Description Specification.

It is used on the AS400 to describe files (PF, LF, PRTF, DSPF, etc)

Here is a link to a manual

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/html/as400/v4r5/ic2924/info/db2/rbafpmst.pdf

The current direction is to move away from DDS and use DDL for DB files.

A few google scans will give you more than enough informaiton on both DDS & DDL
