Is line sequential file read by PH on HP-UX 11i/9000

Are you saying that you have explicit CR/LF chars in the file to terminate
each record?

How are you producing this file?  I.e. is it defined in the dictionary, is
it a subfile, or a dat (no sfd) file?

Can you provide an example of the source that produces the records and reads
the records for us?  
Can you give us the first two rows of the data file?
Can you provide the PDL file/record definition if it is defined in the PHD?
Can you tell us what component of PowerHouse you are writing/reading the
file with?  (Quick, Quiz, QTP)

Folks,

I have been tinkering around with PH, over this particular problem 
I am facing. But the PH manual, or Googling did not help. The 
question seems to be very fundamental...

My PH program generates a line sequential file (records separated 
by newline, fixed length) okay. But then it is unable the read the 
same file it has generated !!! I need to read this LS file, and 
generate a report...but the report I get is all junk...

*** My question is: Can PH read a line sequential input ? Or is it 
that, it will _only_ accept sequential input as it is on UNIX ?

I am using PH on HP-UX 11i. I'd appreciate if someone can answer 
this question, as this seems very trivial, but I could gather no 
info about this in the manuals, or on the web.

Thanks in advance.

Warm Regards,
Raj
