In addition to my prior answer Consider to create a table which contains a text column of the necessary text length
Write your fields to this particular column Print the TXT report, which only contains this particular text column.

The file has multiple record types and I am creating it using WRITE statements. The problem is that when I create the Trailer record R:Base is automatically adding the CRLF to the end. This creates another record in the file and we have to manually remove the last 2 characters in the file. I need a technique for creating this last record without a CRLF on the end.
