Trims leading as well as trailing blanks from text,
returning a text string.
In the following example, the value of vStrim is
the text string ABCDE without the leading as well
as trailing blanks.
SET VARIABLE vStrim = (TRIM(' ABCDE '))
-- ((LTRIM(text))
Trims leading blanks from text, returning a text
string.
In the following example, the value of vStrim is
the text string ABCDE without the leading blanks.
SET VARIABLE vStrim = (STRIM(' ABCDE'))
-- (RTRIM(text))
Trims trailing blanks from text, returning a text
string. This is similar to the existing STRIM
function for string manipulation.
In the following example, the value of vStrim is
the text string ABCDE without the trailing blanks.
