Use char



And use fixed-length types for *all* columns... one variable-length column makes all records variable-length.

Subject: Fixed with Fields


I was wondering if there is a way to create fixed width fields. Example:
The field is set to 18 but data contained is 11. I need the length to remain 18. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks for your help.
