DTS Package is dropping trailing spaces

SD
Hi, a client of mine has parts such as JT220F that have trailing spaces so
at first look they seem like duplicates in the ITEM table.

Technically they are not because one is JT220F and the other is JT220F + '
' here is the problem, I'm importing it into SQL Server from SQLBase via
ODBC driver, but when the DTS is done the parts are brought over without the
trailing spaces.

Now I effectively have a "duplicate" parts.

Is this a problem with DTS or ODBC? When I bring over the data using Access
there is no problem with it, just "DTS"

Any suggestions?

SD

ps. I already yelled at my client for doing using the same part numbers plus
some blank spaces
