    FTP Adding Extra CR/LF After Every Record

    This is a legacy difference between UNIX and DOS/WINDOWS text conventions. UNIX expects a text line to end with LF, the DOS/WINDOWS convention is LF/CR as the line terminator. The LF/CR terminators _are_ there in Windows, it just doesn't show them to you. Try setting ASCII mode in the FTP...

    DD Command

    Have you looked at the manual page by running 'man dd'? Also, you could google 'linux dd'. I don't know the exact details for linux, but your 'if' and 'of' parameters should be raw device names, something like '/dev/fd0'. Do a directory listing of your /dev directory to see what your raw...

    how can I shade one field in the middle a line

    For that you would use PCL (Printer Command Language) control codes. You can google 'PCL' and find reference documents on-line. PCL control is more commonly used to set properties for the entire printed page, i.e. landscape/portrait, font style/size, registration adjustment, etc. The catch...

    Your code and output will be easier to read if you post it between 'code' tags like this: <your code and output goes here> Is 'emp-branch' the bank name field you are concerned with? It looks to me like your output is a fixed-length format and you have supplied the correct position for the...
