Display problem when running a remote script

Hi,

Quick question, someone will hopefully be able to stop me from Smilie.

I currently have a script which calls a script on a remote machine and captures the stdout to a file:

Code:
ssh <user>@<server> > output 2>/dev/null <<_EOF
/path/script.ksh
_EOF

This runs the script but the stdout is badly formatted. The output is an sql and the data is not displayed in column. I.E.

Code:
 
FIELDA FIELDB FIELDC FIELDD
AAAAA 0         ABCD   EFGH
BBBBB 0         ABCD   EFGH
CCCCC      0         ABCD   EFGH
DDDDD      0         ABCD   EFGH
EEEEE 0         ABCD   EFGH

If the script is run locally on the machine, however, the display is correct. I.E. (they should all be in line Smilie)

Code:
 
FIELDA FIELDB FIELDC FIELDD
AAAAA 0         ABCD   EFGH
BBBBB  0         ABCD   EFGH
CCCCC 0         ABCD   EFGH
DDDDD 0         ABCD   EFGH
EEEEE  0         ABCD   EFGH

Any ideas?
