Description: Auto trim on insert and update
Details:
THIS IS NOT A BUG, but a request. Found no place else to submit.
I have found no way to automatically trim fields to the length of the
varchar or char on inserts and updates.
I have tried to create check rules to trim to the varchar length with not
luck.
Can this become a Configuration option???
Doing trims of every variable at every sql command execution takes a lot of
time both coding and lookup the columns length.
Thanks.
