What's different between the development and production environments?

Hint: "nothing" is not the correct answer.

You aren't actually seeing "control-z" or ^Z characters in your record data, are you? I'm assuming you mean the ^Z is all on its lonesome as the last line in your file. In that case it is a EOF you can find in Windows/DOS files typically. They are not part of the data.

So which is it? Can you post examples?

You can compare the 'DSParams' files from your projects to see which parameter is different.
The 'DSParams' files are on your projects folders, ex :
/opt/datastage/IBM/InformationServer/Server/Projects/ADMIN
