Hello Everybody ! with the sql-dialog I can do: alter table xyz column fielda alter default ' ' for char columns or alter table xyz column fielda alter default '9999-12-31' for date columns (The datetime parameter in my database is "EUR") I want to know how to do this with the sql-studio gui ??

Error: invalid end of sql statement What do i have to type in the userdefined value to get the same results as with the sql dialog???
