When using the Find/Change dialog to change the contents of a record, the record length must remain the same. If the length of the Find and Change to fields are different, the Change Confirmation message displays.
If the length of the Change to string is greater than the length of the Find string, the Change Conformation displays, telling you that the end of the record will be truncated to correct the record length. Click OK to close the Change Confirmation message.
If the length of the Change to string is less than the length of the Find string, the Change Confirmation displays, prompting you to specify the type of the pad characters to add to the end of the record. Specify the pad character details and then click OK.
To specify the pad characters, select one of the following options:
Specifies a blank character
Specifies a null character
Specifies a specific character
Note: if you select this option, the Value field is enabled. Specify the character to add to the end of the record.
Specifies a hexadecimal character
Note: if you select this option, the Value field is enabled. Specify hexadecimal value to add to the end of the record. For example, 00.
