>I need a way to create a varialbe record length txt file. I have a table that has pertinent customer information in it. From this table I am trying to create a txt file that has several different record formats for each customer from the table. Each type of record in the txt file has a different record length. And some of these txt record are over 256 characters. I have no problem creating the txt file with

It depends on how you're creating the file. I suggest to use a relatively slow method of scanning the file and outputting into the file with either low-level file function or with strtofile.
