cchar is char(32). when a string expression such as upper or lower is applied 
to a fixed length column the trailing spaces of the fixed length character are 
not preserved.

select cchar, concat(cchar, cchar), concat(lower(cchar), cchar), 
concat(upper(cchar), cchar) from tchar

create table  if not exists TCHAR ( RNUM int , CCHAR char(32 )    )
 ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' 
 STORED AS TEXTFILE  ;
