Truncated record in OPEN DATASET ENCODING NON-UNICODE

Hi,

I have to read a Unicode created file into a non-unicode SAP System, version 4.7.

When I make the OPEN DATASET using ENCODING UTF-8 y get a CONVT_CODEPAGE dump. That´s odd cause my system is non-unicode. I don´t wanna use IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS attribute, the output will be corrupt.

But when I use ENCODING NON-UNICODE or ENCODING DEFAULT the READ DATASET mysteriously truncate the record which try to read from real 401 characters to 361 characters. Variable is string.

I can see full records through AL11.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Pablo.
