When Export results to a tab-delimited file, the column with VARCHAR2 datatype added one extra space between words.
For example: if the column has a value of "This*is*a*test." where asterisk (*) means a space, the value in export file becomes "This**is**a**test." Notice that there are two spaces between words.
This behavior happens to one user but not to another user. I checked Tools | Options but couldn't find anything that could affect the behavior.
Change the setting for “String Quote Character” parameter in Export Wizard of TDA from a space (the field is empty) to a single-quote (‘).
