left outer join not working with fileaddress

I have 2 table, let's say ltable and rtable, with a VARCHAR(255) field containing a fileaddress.
And i have to find all the fileaddresses in ltable that are not in rtable. And for that reason i use a left outer join like that:

SELECT * FROM ltable AS L
JOIN rtable AS R
USING (fileaddress)
WHERE R.fileaddress is NULL
ORDER BY L.fileaddress;

but with plain varchar (without :\,\...) it works and with :\,\... i am getting strange results.
I was thinking it was because some strange management of :\,\ in varchar but the value comes from a LOAD DATA INFILE and then move from a table to other by INSERT so the value should be the same ones.
Where am i getting wrong?
Thanks for your help
