Creating fixed field length records

[Stephen Barncard]

this should work (not tested)


put multiChar(space,396) into tPaddedLine


function multiChar pChar,pRecordLength
repeat with n = 1 to pRecordLength
    put pChar after tOut
end repeat
return tOut
end multiChar

>first, how do I create a string of spaces <record length> long?
