    I have a flat file with over 200 fixed length columns

    We're just guess here because we can't see your file.

    Do you have a record layout for this file and can you attach a text file with the first 10 rows? Of course, if you do attach a file, make sure it's not violating any privacy or company private concerns.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
