Variable length subfiles.

Hello, fellow powerhouserites.

I need to create a pipe-delimited ascii file.  It also needs to be
variable length.  problem is, when I output a subfile in quiz, it
creates a fixed-length file.  If I convert the file, VMS adds extra
spaces so the file is, essentially, still fixed-length.  I think that I
can do it if I define the file in the dictionary, but I'd like to avoid
this.

I'm using:
OpenVMS V6.2-1H3
PowerHouse 8.10.C2

Any suggestions/ideas?
