Thank You All!
I have the solution to my problem thanks to many of you list server freinds.
The Portable option on the subfile statement created an ASCII dat file for
me.
However when I coded the following to get a carriage return on the end of
each line the portable subfile retuened to hex format.
Per Bob Edis I needed to use the linefeed option instead,Thank You! Bob.
I needed one record per line in the dat file appx 800 bytes long with a file
length of appx 8000.
For your consideration I am transfering the file from a UNIX platform to my
PC to import into an Excel spreadsheet.
code example:
ACCESS FILE
DEFINE NL INTEGER*2 = 10
DEFINE NLX CHAR*01 = CHAR(NL)[2:1]
REPORT (elements) NLX
SET SUBFILE NAME MYSUBFILE NODICT PORTABLE KEEP
SET REPORT NOLIMIT
GO
THANK YOU ALL!!!!
