Are you doing this
String string1 = somevariable;
String string2 = someothervariable;
string1.trim();
string2.trim();
and then using string1 and string2 in the prepared statement?

Subject: Values not trimming - writing to DB
I am setting values into my dB (SQL server) and using a prepared statement
to do so. I simply put in the values from my form and that should be that.
The values (once in the dB) however have a ton of empty spaces at the end of
the values however, up to the full length of the dB field.
Here's the source of my confusion:
1. The dataTypes in SQLServer are set to VarChar, not char.
2. I am using the .trim() method on each string prior to setting it in the
prepared statement
3. I just rolled the code that does the dB insert into a bean - but the
identical code within my JSP didn't give me thatproblem.
Does anyone why this would be or how I could get around it?
Thanks.
Neal
