Subject:      Re: Output files on the mainframe

You said:

2) LRECL of a flat TSO file being limited to 32k does not mean it cannot
swallow more than 32k worth of data.
THat is correct, but what i experience is that supposed i have a
60k
file output. It swallows the first 32k, then places the following 28k on a
new line, which breaks up my data.


Is this solved by adding a trantab option to your ODS statement?:

ODS HTML FILE=MYOUTPUT  TRANTAB=ASCII;
PROC PRINT DATA=SOMEINPUT; RUN;
ODS HTML CLOSE;

then you can use a record of any reasonable length?
