Assign <space> or <blank> to characteristic value via BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE

I have a need to put <blanks> or <spaces>as a value in a characteristic via the FM. BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE This can be done using CL20N so I assume it can be done  via the BAPI as well.  I have tried many things but nothing seems to work.  The characteristic has a valid value as <SPACE> with a description of "No connection".

The documentation says that putting blanks in the value field will delete the entry causing "no entry" to be set as it's value.  I have found this to be true.

I have tried moving '''' (4 quotes) to the field,  I have tried moving 'No connection' to the description field and leaving the value field blank.  I have tried setting  the blanks to be the default value of the characteristic and then not including it int the list of characteristics when I create the object classification.

I have run out of ideas.

Do you have the solution?

Thanks,

BTW:  It would also be helpful to me if you know for a fact that this cannot be done.  That way I can look for an alternative solution.
