Function to remove trailing blanks
Syntax
TRIM(<expC>)
See Also
Description
The TRIM() function is synonymous with the RTRIM() function. It removes trailing blank characters from the character expression <expC>. This function should only be used in conjunction with the RPAD() function when used in index expressions, since index keys must be fixed length.
Example
fname = "Christopher " sname = "Thompson " ? len(fname) 20 ? len(trim(fname)) 11 ? trim(fname)+" "+trim(sname) Christopher Thompson
Products
Recital, Recital Server
