Another thing I forgot to mention. In order to reduce size in tye one I have many records to send (about 20k records), I reduce the size of tags (names) to the minimum possible to identify them. I also don't use carriage returns (CR - Chr(13)+Chr(10)). Those are only needed when you want to read the file yourself. Systems do not need them. That saves me two extra characters per line.
