Hi,
I inserted # and ^ in a varchar field but they disappear while viewing it.
Can you please tell me why?

whizkid79,

May be inserted record is sorted on the key and may be in the next page? Why don't you select the row in spufi or qmf?

Kolusu,
If i insert a record with # or ^ and then select it, its coming. Its disappearing only when i'm using DB2 file-aid. Maybe its a limitation/property of this product.
