I'm not sure why you think you have a problem.

Each row in your file will end with a CRLF or just a LF if you are on a Unix/Linux server.

In Notepad, you don't have a blank line, you have an empty line. The cursor is positioned on the next available line.

Excel is recognizing this so it is dropping the empty line.

Actually, client don't want to see this extra line. Even we have informed them that In TABT format, Each record end up with a carriage return and Line Feed.

they convinced but asked for some alternative.
