It is difficult to provide a solution without knowing what script you are running and what platform and how you are running etc.  Also my
preference is, instead of executing 'Select * ' type out the fields properly some thing like below: 
     SELECT FIELD_1 (CHAR(50),
     DATE_FIELD (DATE, FORMAT 'YYYY-MM-DD') (CHAR(10), BLA BLA FROM MYTABLE;
As you are saying below about chopping off the record, ensure you set a Width statement some thing like this: 
     .SET WIDTH 5000
HTH! 
 Thanks
