<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Footlight MT Light","serif";color:#1F497D">The first place to look is at the ACTCHG.TXT that was created. What we have seen in our testing is it is throwing the dimensions off, for example:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">I changed account 001 1211 0000 0000000 000 to 001 1211 3333 000000 000 but the ACTCHG.TXT file shows it as: 03 001 1211 0003 333000 000.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">It shifted the SCC over three spaces creating the wrong account.<o:p></o:p></p>
