Default Removing leading spaces

I am converting an Oracle report to Excel, and have run into an issue. I have
changed the macro to pull a different column than before. The data still
resides in the O column, but is different, from a trailing and leading zero
standpoint. The portion of the macro that worked befo

' Removes leading spaces column O
Columns("O:O").TextToColumns Destination:=Range("O1"), _
DataType:=xlFixedWidth, OtherChar:="|", _
FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 2), Array(7, 1))

the cells in this column had 6 leading, and 4 trailing spaces. Now, when I
pull a different column of data from Oracle, but put it in the same column in
Oracle, I get the "Do you want to replace the contents of the destination
cells?" question, which I did not get before. If I answer yes, it errors out
on the next step in the macro, which attempts to put the data in a pivot
table format. It won't work, because the macro has deleted the column
heading. Again, something that didn't happen before. The onle difference I
can see is that the new column I am trying to bring in has 6 preceding
spaces, no trailing, instead of the 6 leading and 4 trailing of the old
column. Evidently, I am clueless, and could use a hand....
