     Change your RPG program and use the current DDS created object as an
external reference defining a Data Structure. Name the data structure. Do
you have a CL calling the RPG program? If not make one. Create a 'flat
file' in the CL to create a file with a fixed length to match the provided
specifications. Do not use DDS to define this file. Clear the file
beforehand if need be and call the RPG program after changing the RPG
program to output to the newly named flat file specifying the record length
within the file description specs. Then write the newly created data
structure with, the old fashioned, output specs.

     This will at least eliminate the field delimited/separated problems.
Now you can tackle the record separators if you have to, specifications
permitting.

I have my DDS file set up properly, the problem is when I transfer the file
from the AS/400 to the PC, Client Access inserts an additional space
between
the fields. (Running RPG IV)

You need to tell us what the "spec" is? Comma delimited?
The translate from lower to upper is easy also. RPG III or
RPG IV?
