data extraction using dbconnect

hi,

In oracle the character length is 100 (varchar 100) and the data stored is 10 char only say(abcdefghij) . will the infoobject with length char 10 accepts the data from oracle or we have to create the object with 100 characters length...

As we are in the designing phase we have to freeze this asap and start developing....

any help will be appreciated

thanks in advance..
