Thank you for your response, Charles, I preserve RDW and able to read record length field. I am also able to successfully covert EBCDIC to ASCII and Packed to decimal. So there is no issue with data conversion. As you correctly point out, intel/windows does not understand 0D0A. If it

Thank you, Michael, I used WWUNTERSE for my terse file. I am able to get RDW & BDW and also able to read data after proper conversion. Problem is when I read file for each record (using loop), I get different record lengths for each record, in range of single digit to thousands. Seems it adds

Thank for your response, Paul. I agree, CRLF irrelevant to binary files. Surprisingly, only after using CRLF option, I get those binary records in proper record length. I tried to force it to U format but did not work for m. I will try again with different methods. I can preserve RDW and BDW.

There are so many layers of issues here ... If the data is "binary" (any or nearly any byte value is possible) then no approach that involves CRLF is going to work. Period. Software does not have a way to distinguish between a 0D0A that signifies the end of a record versus a 0D0A that just
