trailing spaces on a varchar2 select

I'm using embedded SQL to select a varchar2 datatype from a table.  We
are using Oracle7.3.4.  The problem is that Oracle seems to append
spaces up to the size that the varchar2 datatype is defined as for the
table.  Is there some way I can stop Oracle appending spaces onto the
returned value?



Thanks,



Anthony
