I need to create a file that contains an EDI document that is a
very long text string with no hidden markers such as EOL etc.
It could be thousands of characters long.
I tried to construct a long variable string, OUTPUT fname ; WRITE
.vstring; OUTPUT SCREEN... but there appears to be a 1500 character
limit on variables.
I tried setting EOFCHAR OFF and... OUTPUT fname APPEND; WRITE
.vstring; OUTPUT SCREEN in a loop that wrote each piece of the string
variable to the file. The file looks like a single string but there is
an invisible character imbedded after each append.
HELP... there must be a way in Rbase?
