[SOLVED] '%' sign showing up at the end of Text data type.

Hello,
I am new to web focus development and I am having trouble figuring out why the data at the end of the text field coming from sql server stored procedure is showing a '%' sign.

The Master file also shows it as a text field. I tried to do RTRIM by converting text field to varchar(max) in the stored procedure and it did not work either.

Please help

Try:
SET END_OF_TEXT = ' '

in the focexec before the request.

How long, how many characters, is the actual data in the field being returned?

I figured out the solution. The percentage sign disappears when the data type of the field in the master file is changed from TX to A2048V in both usage and Actual fields.

Thank you.
