The current Athena release for that platform is 7.6D not 7.4H. You may need to update the workstation. The described behaivor has not been observed on 7.6D. If the file had some non-text characters in it then the described behaivor would have been correct.
If you encounter this problem again please make the file available to DCNS if possible. In the meantime your bug report is being marked as complete. If you wish to appeal this please send mail to pbh@mit.edu referencing bug transaction 46.
