RE: [sqr-users] Problems in writing into a fixed length file.

Choudary,

There is a concept in data processing called padding.  Use a variable of
spaces to make up the difference in your line length.

Subject: [sqr-users] Problems in writing into a fixed length file.


Iam facing problem in writing variables into fixed length file with line

terminator. I am able to write  fixed length file without line
terminators 
but not with line terminators...!!
I am using below code for the same..

open 'test.txt' as 10 for-writing record=100:fixed
write 10 from $var1:20 $var2:15

Then it is writing only 35 length record but not 100..!!

Am I going wrong somewhere..?!

Quick response would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
