dbexport problem

Morning I recently had cause to run a dbexport routine on our Informix database, and all files appear to have created correctly, apart from one, whereby the bulk of the file is creating correctly, and complete records are appearing on one line, until we get to near the end of the file, when, without reason, some - but not all - lines appear to split over a line. Can anybody offer an explanation/resolution please Many thanks Gary
