Hello all,

I just startet using DBD::Sybase (after experimenting with
DBD::Oracle and DBD::ODBC), and I found some effects I don't
know how to handle.

1. Is it possible to avoid the additional Blank after each
column I select (it does not appear always, but in most cases)?
I know it can be avoided in isql, but how is it done in DBD::
Sybase (without losing the blanks I need for a fixed format
output, i.e. ChopBlanks does not help) ?

2. In some obscure cases, all Blanks are chopped when I add
an Order-By-Clause to an Select, though I explicitely cast
the columns to a fixed length. Without Order-By the Blanks
are not chopped and I get a Fixed-Length-Output.
Can this behaviour be changed (or can someone explain it to me)?

I'm using Perl 5.005_03 and DBD::Sybase 0.22.

Thanks in advance.
