If you are using quiz to export data, don't forget to
set the page length to 0, otherwise quiz will add a
few form feeds in for you as well.
If you can keep the record width under 255, here is
what I use.
SET REPORT DEVICE DISC &
NOLIMIT &
SPACING 1 &
NAME filename &
PAGE WIDTH 255 &
LENGTH 0 &
NOHEAD &
NOBLANKS
If you can't keep it under 255, use QTP and a portable
subfile. Specifying the NODICTIONARY option makes it a
true data file....but remember to either fix the
fields or delimit them using something like a pipe
"|". I have found it doesn't usually appear in anyones
data.
