Fixed Width Text Write
Fixed-width text files can be created from data which is exported from database files. Additionally, fixed-width text files can be created from data which is translated from other file formats including Excel, delimited text and XML.
GoAnywhere can create fixed-width text files using a variety of user-specified options:
- Include/exclude column headings
- Field starting positions and lengths
- Record delimiters (CR, LF, CR/LF, LF/CR)
- Formatting options for dates and numbers
- Alignment and padding options
- Null substitute values
- Append to the end of existing text files
- Replace existing text files
After a fixed-width text file is generated, GoAnywhere can then compress or
encrypt the text file and store it on the file system or
distribute the file to a FTP server, HTTP server or email addresses.
