Hi all,
I got to write varaible size records in my output file.To do this i am using VB format. Now i am expecting my record to be 115 characters long, and this record got last X(20) field containing some 10 trailing spaces. The VB format is trucating all the traling spaces and makes the record length as 105 by putting the line feed on 106th character. Is there some way to set the line-feed to a particular position in a record ? or can i some way make the length as 115 ? . Please note that i got other variable length record in this file so i cant use FB format.

Thanks,
Sudhin

I am assuming that you are having a problem when you are trying to FTP the dataset. If that is the case then check this topic
