Oh boy. Clobs are going to be fun!! Feel free to log a ticket with support in
this. I’m pretty loaded up with code expert work but hopefully I can get it
fixed soon.

Hi Greg,
I was using 10.5 so just upgraded and tried it out in 10.6.
If I spool a varchar2 field then then it is okay and trims to end.
But if spool a CLOB with embedded newlines (assume 'name' is a clob in the
original), then the bug still exists and it pads each line out to linesize
in this case.
I must say these whole modes inherited from SQLPlus could use a additional
(yet simpler) mode that just outputs w/o respect to linesize or padding (ie
pretend a clob is a txt file with newlines and arbitrary space at end of
each line that should be preserved).
Do I need to enter this is a bug/enhancement request on the site somewhere
then?
Thanks!!
Chris

Chris, What version of Toad are you using? That should have been fixed for
10.6. Greg On Oct 21, 2010, at 8:54 PM, "chris.rokusek_421" <

have a simple spool to file script and am getting extra blank space at the

setting. If I run the same script directly within SQLPlus it trims the
whitespace from the end of the lines as expected. If run within toad it pads
out to the length of the column definition. Thanks! Chris set pagesize 0 set

select trim(name) from tbl; spool off;
