Hi all,

I have an input dataset which contains few records.

The question is

when iam browsing the file, the first byte is truncated for all the records and when iam viewing the input file in edit mode i can see that first byte.

Help me out...

Thanks,
Gau

Yes. If the data contains a carriage-control byte, see The DISPLAY command.
