If your FLOAD set record is unformatted, and the data is text format (with record terminators), you need to account for the record terminators - CRLF (carriage return and line feed: chr(13) + chr(10) in Windows) or LF (Line feed: chr(10) in UNIX).

You may want to SET RECORD TEXT. Or conversely ADD 1-2 bytes of filler on the end of your layout depending on the data platform:

     set record unformatted;

     DEFINE

      Num  (char(3)),
      Name  (char(6)),
      CRLF (char(2))

Or.....

     set record TEXT;

     DEFINE

      Num  (char(3)),
      Name  (char(6)),
