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. |
