You can use:
HOLD AS filename FORMAT DFIX DELIMITER |

See the Language Manual: "How to Create a Delimited Sequential File"

Have you checked the manual about the DFIX format yet.

There are more options than just setting the delimeter.

This has also been talked about on the forum before, you could also use the search function here.
