I'm creating a SQL table using the follwoing SQL statment...

Create table F55RULE (
RUGROP VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
RULOB VARCHAR(3),
RULT VARCHAR(3) NOT NULL,
RUVALR VARCHAR(1) NOT NULL,
RUOBJS VARCHAR(6) NOT NULL,
RUSUBS VARCHAR(8) NOT NULL,
RUOBJE VARCHAR(6),
RUSUBE VARCHAR(8) NOT NULL);

Once the table is created though, the size of each column had been

expanded

by 2 char...

FIELD     Position    Length  D Ty. File      Libra
RUGROP          1         52  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL
RULOB          53          5  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL
RULT           58          5  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL
RUVALR         63          3  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL
RUOBJS         66          8  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL
RUSUBS         74         10  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL
RUOBJE         84          8  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL
RUSUBE         92         10  0  A  F55RULE   QGPL

Does anybody know why this is?

Thanks,
Wes
