SYMPTOM(s):

Ascii dump fails with error "INPUT/OUTPUT operations are not allowed with datatype fixchar". (6901)

SQL-92 Table includes fixchar type defined for column

CAUSE:

fixchar datatype is not supported with SQL-92 or 4GL

FIX:

The table can not be dumped with 4GL or SQL but a connection can be made with a SQL-92 client to retrieve records.
Select * from <ownername>."<tablename>";

Capture the output from the command.
Drop the table from the database after all data from the database has been captured.
Re-create the table with a valid field datatype.
