[McIDAS #QLY-545896]: TXT2MD

Hi Kway,

re:

The schema for an MD file basically defines how large the file can be
both in terms of file header and data portion, and there will be errors
when a process tries to go past that size.

re:

Write to the next file in the logical spool, MDXX1002 in your case.

Cheers,

Tom
