QTP-concatenating a variable number of records

[Alice DeWit]

Hi,
Can anyone help with this problem. 

How to write the contents of one subfile containing a variable number of records , with each record containing one item with a variable number of trailing spaces, to a portable subfile, as one long uninterrupted string.

It is to be noted that when we attempted to concatenate these records (using the PACK and TRUNCATE options) into one item in the portable subfile we were limited by the maximum item size in QTP of 2047 characters. In most instances the sum of all the records in the source subfile, minus their respective trailing spaces will exceed 2047 characters

(Our environment is a Digital Alpha running QTP v7.10.G1)

Thanks in advance.

Regards
