Re: Can anyone explain this

What is the difference between rows 1-2 and 3-5?
It appears that rows 3-5 are missing ether a line
terminator, such as a <CR> or a trailing space, or the
data has filed the column to its maximum length.
I can not be for certain about the latter because
you did not post a data schema of the table in question.

These observations should give you a clue on the
resolution required.
