I am trying to create a line sequential file with record length 150 bytes (fixed format). The requirement is that the last 50 bytes of the record should be blanks. Finally, when I am opening the file the actual record length is 100 bytes. That means that the last 50 bytes are truncated. solve this problem?

In record layout mention last fifty char filler with spaces.

For example

01 SAMPLE-Rec

      05 SAMPLE-1 pic x(100)

      05 Filler Pic x(50) value Spaces.

Let me know in case of any queries.
