loosing characters

This is my first question here, I hope anyone can help.

I have a problem creating a qvd-file based on a csv-file.

One of the fields in the csv is char-field, length=6. The second position is "J", all the others are blank.

Running my qvw, the result in the qvd is a field "J" with a length=1. All blanks are truncated.

I use the following script (maybe with wrong parameters?):

LOAD

@1 AS FIELD1,
@2 AS FIELD2,
@3 AS FIELD3,  <= that’s the problem-field
@4 AS FIELD4,
@5 AS FIELD5

FROM Test.csv
(
txt, codepage is 1252, no labels, delimiter is ';', msq)

;

The concerning part of the csv-file:

;" J   "; …

The qvd looks this way:


Maybe someone has an idea?

Thanks a lot, Mike

Frank,

seems, it works

... with the little csv I tested with.

Next I will try it with the whole file (3,8 GB).

Thanx a lot!
