Hi All,

Declare
a varchar2(10);
Begin
select trim(' XYZXYZ ') into a from dual;
End;

It's saying trim to be declared. Whether we can use Trim function in Oracle forms? If not, any other option?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Dear

Oracle Forms 5.0 and 6.0 didn't supports trim. but you can use ltrim or rtrim or both at the same time Smile

Declare
a varchar2(10);
Begin
select rtrim(' XYZXYZ ') into a from dual;
End;

Best Regards
Muhammad Irfan Bakali
