Subfiles, no line end in .dat

[Elisabeth Corsten]

Dear All, 

migrating from MPE / IMAGE / KSAM to PH 843D under UX and Eloquence, we
were quite happy with the pilot part of the system, until we tried to
access a QTP-written subfile with COBOL.

Even printed on screen or transferred to Excel the .dat file showed the
same data jumble; the records are not separated and the data just flows
on and on. Obviously only PH modules see the line end and can discern
individual records.

Apologies in advance - this one must have come up before - only I
couldn't find anything relevant...
