I am trying to convert existing MTS server which is running on BDE to ADO. I
am facing following Problem with the string field on Oracle backend.
1.    Lenght of the String Field is 50 CHARS. If I enter 10 char rest of the
40 char are filled with spaces which is not happing in the case of BDE. How
to avoid this situation. Large amount of data which is already entered is
without spaces.
2.    If I clear the text from field and then try to ApplyUpdate()  I am
getting error "The application has improperly defined a Parameter object".
Many time in data entry chances are that field will get clear.

Above Problems I don't consider as bug because they are very important in
day to day operation. I feel that some thing I am not doing correct. Please
Help me out.

Thanks In Advance

Ajay
