FixedWidthFields
Toggles between fixed and variable field lengths for data export operations. In a variable-length data export, the length of the data within a column varies across the rows in the export. The maximum width of the data in the column is governed by the Format phrase specified for the column in the Data Dictionary. In a fixed-width data export, the character length within columns is constant across the rows in the export. The maximum width of the data in the column is governed by the Format phrase specified for the column in the Data Dictionary. Values that do not fill the maximum width are padded with trailing space characters.
Requirements: Active query and the export view.
