download internal table to pc with blank at end of records

[Former Member]

Dear all:

We are using GUI_DOWNLOAD to download a internal table to pc, this table has some records with blanks at the end of the line, but those dont exist when we see the file in notepad in the pc!! We are on 6.0 unicode

Best regards

I think notepad does not show blank lines seprated by any separator....

could you please let us know, why you want to see blank lines?

Thanks.

Hello, thank for answering.

We are sending a file to the bank, and it has to have a fixed size of each line of 90 charaters always (with blanks at the end if necessary, to complete the 90).

I opened the file with wordpad and it no shows the blanks

look at the parameters for GUI_DOWNLOAD and turn OFF the default to drop trailing blanks.

As mentioned by Dave...please look at 'TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS' parameter...

Actually, I think you need to look at the parameter 'TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS_EOL' which is set to 'X' by default.

Yes,

TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS_EOL = space

mus be passed to GUI_DOWNLOAD .

I tried. I works as expected.
