RE: Weird Characters in table

["paul therrien" <paultherrien@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use:

select hex(fieldname)

This shows the hexadecimal value of the field and lets me see if there are
non-display characters.

Subject: Weird Characters in table

Hi
I am running into weird issue of having some weird characters in table which
are not displayed on any SQL program, for example if i run query

select * from mycontact where email  = 'myemail@xxxxxxxx'; this query does
not return any rows, but if i modify the query like below

select * from mycontact where email  *like 'myemail@xxxxxxxx%'*; it returns
data, so i believe is there is some weird data after *.com *, but if i run

select * from mycontact; from 5250 screen or iseries navigator i dont see
any characters after .com, so how do i find what it is, and how do i fix
this data

Regards
