Your command is working fine in case of extra pipes also i.e more than 16 pipes. Can you please help me with expalanation how its working in case of extra pipes in data.

Not sure I understand your question. Additional lines will be read and appended to $0 until there are 17 fields in $0. No distinction is made between pipe field separators and "extra pipes". Should your input have many "extra pipes" in early fields, that method may fail and still leave you with truncated lines.
Should that become a problem, see posts #5 and #7.

PX_PUT_DATA_BYTES(3)					     Library Functions Manual					      PX_PUT_DATA_BYTES(3)

NAME
PX_put_data_bytes -- Put value into a bytes data field SYNOPSIS
#include <paradox.h> void PX_put_data_bytes(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, char *data, int len, char *value) DESCRIPTION
Simply copies a sequence of bytes into a data field as it stored in the database file. You should use this function instead of accessing the record data directly. data points to start of the data field in the record. It must be calculated by summing up all field length before the field to operate on and add it to the base pointer of the record. This function is similar to PX_put_data_alpha(3) without recoding. It is mostly used to store field data of Type pxfBytes. SEE ALSO
