String Conversion

If Siebel VB converts data from a fixed string to a dynamic string, then it creates a dynamic string that includes the same length and contents as the fixed string. If it converts a dynamic string to a fixed string, then it does the following work:

• If the dynamic string is shorter than the fixed string, then it extends the fixed string with spaces.

• If the dynamic string is longer than the fixed string, then it truncates the fixed string.

A string conversion does not cause run-time errors.
