Core Data String Issue

[Ladd]

I'm sure this will be a stupid question but I need some help...

I just started converting one of my Apps to Core Data today. All is working but...

I have a string property in my data store. When I retrieve it it comes back as 3 characters long if empty, and 10 characters long if populated with 2 characters. ("NO" for example)

I have tried changing the attribute min/max lengths in Xcode to no avail.

Is this normal??? I was really pleased with how easy setting everything up was going but I plan to use the values retrieved and the extra padding is making things really painful.

Thanks in advance for any info.

*** Edit ***
Solved by returning a dictionary in my case.

// Specify that the request should return dictionaries.
[request setResultType:NSDictionaryResultType];
