The zeros were not being stripped. It was just that the CFF stage not displaying them... I used UltraEdit to view the Hexadecimal equivalent of the leading zeros.

The problem was with 'Line Termination' in the Sequential file. When I changed the Line termination form UNIX(LF) to DOS style(CR LF) all the records appear in separate lines when viewed with Notepad.
