Need to download a file which si space delimted and has fixed length char

Question

Hi,
I have a custom report which downloads an output file in text format.I need the contents to be space delimited.My file data contains numbers as well as characters.I ahve pased the parameter WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = ' ' in the FM.Hwoever the space is introduced only oif the column value is a character.If its a number/digit,the columns are not seperated by space.
Now my data appears like that:
0000101310179.28 +0827200808 DHLBSRF VISA AUG 2008US021SW111 RYAN,BICOVNY
I want my data to be like this :
0000101310 179.28 + 0827200808 DHLBSRF VISA AUG 2008 US02 1SW111 RYAN,BICOVNY
DO I need to pass any additinal parametre?Also for fixed length characrets,do i need to pack/unpack data before passing to the FM ?
Thanks.

Hi,
try this way.
REPORT ztest_notepad.
DATA: BEGIN OF it_download OCCURS 0,
       data TYPE string,
      END OF it_download.
DATA: BEGIN OF it_vbrk OCCURS 0,
        vbeln TYPE vbrk-vbeln,
        fkart TYPE vbrk-fkart,
        fktyp TYPE vbrk-fktyp,
        netwr TYPE vbrk-netwr,
      END OF it_vbrk.
DATA : l_netwr TYPE char21.
"START-OF-SELECTION.
START-OF-SELECTION.
  SELECT  vbeln
          fkart
          fktyp
          netwr
   FROM vbrk
   INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_vbrk
   UP TO 100 ROWS.
  LOOP AT it_vbrk.
    l_netwr = it_vbrk-netwr.
    CONCATENATE it_vbrk-vbeln
                it_vbrk-fkart
                it_vbrk-fktyp
                l_netwr
        INTO it_download-data
        SEPARATED BY space.
    APPEND it_download.
    CLEAR  it_download.
  ENDLOOP.
  CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
       EXPORTING
            filename = 'C:\test.txt'
            filetype = 'ASC'
       TABLES
            data_tab = it_download.
