VT220 in 7-bit mode

I have an application that needs to use vt220 emulation but in 7-bit
mode. The default from the termcap/terminfo seems to be 8-bit mode. Is
there a way to create another entry in the termcap or terminfo to get
the 7-bit mode?

I'm pretty sure this is the problem because when I log in from a Windows
NT system with a telnet session set to vt220 7-bit mode the application
run fine. When I log in from Windows NT with a telnet session and vt220
8-bit mode I get the same problems as when I try to use an xterm running
vt220 emulation.

thanks for any info.
dave.
