Hi

Its working but there is realignment in the data spacing.

The existing data positions should not be disturbed and the number of characters 248 should be maintained in the result too

There will be blank spaces at the end of each line and in between data as well. the blank space indiactes there is no data for that field.

Actually there are certain field names by which the reports are generated, if that field is not available in the report there will be blank space to mention that.

I need to maintain the length 248 characters. Since this file will be sent for formatting to different format in another server. So data has to be intact.

there must be 11 blank spaces after the timestamp : 20090309102806279
after that i need to insert the 441 if 442 is present.
