Author Flat file schema not validating correctly

I have a schema defined for a flat file that I want to populate a SQL table.
There are 3 positional field. For some reason when I validate the instance
the third field contains the entire file. Attached is my schema and a sample
from the flat file. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Definition of sample file:
EquipmentID - 18
PartnerID - 12
PartnerName - 40

The PartnerName may terminate early..

Set the MaxOccurs property on the PE node to * (unbounded)

The problem that I am having is that it reads the first and second fields
fine, however the third field contains the rest of the file. I have since
gone back and removed the PE node. This has not solved my problem. Any
suggestions?
