Exporting Fixed width files

  • Hello, I am trying to export data with over 200 columns to fixed width and output seems to be without row delimiter.

    I did find out that eliminating header column solves some

    problems but makes it harder on receiving party to validate. We can live with that but I can't deal with shoving my data to a 2000 SQL box to get fixed width out!!!

    Talk about feeling STUPID!

  • You have to change to Ragged Right instead of Fixed Width. Fixed Width is for mainframe output, which doesn't use row delimiters.
