Converting omnirpt tab file to Fixed length file
Output from omnirpt, while tab delimitered, can produce offset columns depending on string lengths. To ensure the column offsets are consistent the output is passed through TMSS10CSV2Fixed.
Run TMSS10CSV2Fixed directing the file dataprotector.csv through stdin to get a starting point for columns and offset values, adjust the offsets to match the data you wish to import, omitting data from irrelevant columns.
