I have created a "|" 'piped' delimited *txt file with records with variable number of fields and length by using the UNION and OUTPUT to a *.txt file.
However the shorter records, there are extra delimiters which I need to remove. Does anyone know of a way to remove these extra delimiters?

No worries - all good. I appreciate the assistance. 😀
Did that fix your issue?
Actually, after the UNION, I did an IF statement based on the record type to output to a single field by concatenating all required fields required along with the required number "|" for each record type.
Thank you again for your guidance
