Handling Special Characters
How can i trim the special characters if i get them in my data. To my understanding trim can only wipe away spaces. Do we have any functions to trim the special characters in Parallel extender. Please let me know.

It is sometimes necessary, with NLS enabled, to handle characters that are not ordinarily trimmable, such as the Japanese space character. You can write a routine but it is much easier to add the code point for this character to the TRIMMABLE class in the CTYPE category of the NLS locale.
