Bruce,
What was the exact code for CPORT on PC and CIMPORT on Unix? Remember
that these two procedures have multiple possibilities:
import/export of libraries and datasets. Please use the same type of
code for both sides.
 
Also try defining an LRECL=80 for the export file in a FILENAME
statement:
 
FILENAME export 'sascat.dat' LRECL=80;
PROC cport DATA=test FILE=export;
RUN;
