I was going to suggest switching to "DWA" and then checking for "THURSDAY" but basically the same suggestion, that way there's no confusion over what day of the week you are looking for. I also seem to recall there may be a setting in the dsenv file that controls what day of the ...

Sounds like you are working with a fixed-width file, you said the record length was 205 bytes but it only found 204 in the actual record. Which number is correct?
