Hi,

I am observing trailing spaces truncation when converting data from oracle to teradata using utilities .

Ex :-- In Oracle varchar field having data like 'abcd ' after loading into teradata utilitity (tpump/ mload) trimimg the trailing space by default and the data in teradata table is like 'abcd' i checked the lenghth of the field and using like operation i can make the differentiation . but equal operation worked fine .

Is there any way to restrict this.

Thanks
