What does that mean? What should they have, instead? NULL?

You can trim all columns without searching them.
Or you can reload in a correct way.

I don't know what you have.
I don't know what you do.
I don't know what you see.
It is really, really, REALLY difficult to fix a problem that can not be seen.
use COPY & PASTE so we can see what you do & how Oracle responds.

It would be helpful if you followed Posting Guidelines - http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/
