Problem with TRANSFER statement

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

           I am sending the records to outbound file using TRANSFER statement.

Here i have some 33 fields in each record. It is a fixed length file.

If the last  field doesn't contain any values  i am not able to have spaces in the outbound file instead of field contents.

If the field contains value then there is no problem.

But client is very specific to have spaces at the end of each record if the last fields doesn't contain values.

Please help me

Thanks & Regards

Was the file opened in text or binary mode?

Try to specify the record length explicitly with the LENGTH addition of the TRANSFER statement.

Why not start with ABAP Help (F1) on keyword TRANSFER?  There, you would have seen the answer.
