Watch the spaces!
Not each record type uses the same spacing.
Thanks for the clue but spacing was ok?  ALL lines matched line above and below.  I suspec the difference you mentioned is caused by leading 0's as spaces.
 
However trying again I found the problem.  It was the NEWLINE character Curt mentioned in first reply.  But the cause was gunzip and my editor.   I am of course a Windows XP laptop so I installed GNUWIN32 to handle the GZ functions.  gunzip converts newlines to CR/LF so I matched that when I added my data and using the resultant file gzipped or not it fails. 
 
I then tried using the file as is just unzipped and it feiled to run so I tried the uncompress in the package and wouldn't you know it newlines are newlines, probably just a LF without the CR. and the unzipped file worked.
 
I inserted my lines careful to use the newline and not the CR/LF and the new entrie work cna I can run it with the file zipped or not.
 
Thanks for all the help.
