These are the type of datasets used by Unix System Services. You should be using these already in some fashion. Zman is right in asking if the file is truely one long string of bytes (record). I would try to see what the file really looks like first. Since you say it is an invoice, I suspect there are multiple records (line breaks) in the file.
