Hi, My table has a char(5) field that is not always full. "CA " is a value in the table. When I search against the table using an OQLQuery like:
OQLQuery query = db.getOQLQuery( "SELECT c FROM CodeValue c " + "WHERE value = $1" ); query.bind( "CA " ); // With 3 blanks I get the expected result, but when I search without using the blanks: query.bind( "CA" ); // Without 3 blanks I don't get a match on the row in the database. This is a problem since the user is typing the "CA" and won't know that it needs 3 blanks. I don't want to add the blanks myself because I have many queries like this and want to handle them in a generic fashion. I am using Oracle 8.0.5. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
