Have been asked to provide .csv files to send to an Oracle Server.
Specs call for a "line feed" at end of each record,

<quote>Every record must end with a Line Feed character. This is a special character. I represents 2 characters overtop of each other. Your IT staff should know what this is. </quote>
These are specs from a vendor (IFS North America), not Oracle.

I could add a hex 25 for line feed, or hex 0d25 for carriage return & line feed.
It's the "2 characters overtop each other" that is throwing me.
Also, in Oracle's SQL Loader specs via google, it says line feed is a unix \n,
and carriage return is a unix \r.

I'm using RPGLE to write the file directly to the IFS (specs have requirements for double quotes I can't get with a cpyto.. command.

So can anyone xlate the above quote from the vendor to confirm if line feed hex 25 is all that is required? I have no access to talk directly to the vendor techs.

thanks
Jim Franz
