I am creating a fixed length export file with a header and trailer. Every record has to be exactly 300 characters long. When I use the write statement, even with the sfil function it was truncating the spaces on the end. To solve that, I added an underscore as the 300th character. We are supposed to be in production now and during testing we had no problems with the underscore. Now they are saying that it is a problem. Does anyone have a suggestion in windows on how to create a 300 character long record with spaces through the last character.
