I have an ASCII file with 6 records in it and the record terminator is a
NEWLINE character. All the records are less than 80 bytes.

I have to read this file using Powerhouse dictionary record which is 200
bytes fixed length sequential file.

I have been playing with 'dd' command and different options. None of them
working for me.

When I type the file using 'cat' command, it is showing correctly. But when
I read the file in QUIZ, I am getting different number of records (less than
6).

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks
Sagar
