Juha,
 
I have used the option lrecl=500 in the past.  It does not create fixed
length records.  It simply resets the maximum record length (133 on your
computer) to a new value.  Try it!

Is there any way to put over 133 chars per line with PUT (no print option)?
I have found out that over 133 chars PUT makes extra cr/lf on every PUT.
SAS-I helpdesk gave option lrecl, but does it make fixed lenght records?
 
thanks,
Juha Kari
