Re: varchar vs character type fields

2007-09-09 Thread Steve Ellenoff
varchar is a variable length character field, meaning varchar(20) will support UP TO MAX of 20 chars, but will store less if your data has less. A char(20) field always stores 20 characters, regardless if your data doesn't fill up the 20 characters. So it's a matter of simply saving space on ea

Note though that the varchar field in VFP9 does NOT store less spaces, iirc. It's simply for better handling so that you get a value of 'FOXPRO' instead of 'FOXPRO ' (with extra/padded spaces on the right to fill out the size/width of the field). I could be wrong, as I haven't used the VF
