  • Patent number: 7475086
    Abstract: A computer Implemented method of automatically removing space characters from data being entered into a database system are provided. When a user creates a table in a database system into which data having leading and/or trailing character spaces may be entered, the user may specifically instruct the database system to remove any character spaces before entering the data into the table. Consequently, when a piece of data is being entered into the table, the database system will determine whether the piece of data includes leading and/or trailing character spaces. If so, the database system will automatically remove the character spaces from the piece of data before it is entered into the table. Hence, the use of TRIM functions when retrieving data from the database system will be obviated.

  • Publication number: 20080182552
    Abstract: Methods and arrangements to indicate a charge for a call are described herein. Embodiments may comprise hardware and/or code within a cellular phone to process data related to charges for a call to indicate the charges to the user. In some embodiments, the charges may be presented in the form of an icon. The icon may indicate whether or not charges apply to the call, a range of charges, and/or a rate of charge. Further embodiments may display characters describing conditional charges for a call. In still further embodiments, the charges for a call may be indicated by an audible alert such as a volume, frequency, pattern of frequencies, or a voice generated. Embodiments may also include hardware and/or code of a cellular phone server such as an MTSO to gather and transmit account information to a cellular phone (or apparatus with similar functionality such as a mobile broadband card).

  • Patent number: 7257592
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, processor, system, and signal-bearing medium that in an embodiment determine that blob (binary large object) data in a source field is associated with a source CCSID (Coded Character Set Identifier), determine a target CCSID for a target field, and replicate the blob data from the source field to the target field based on the source CCSID and the target CCSID. In this way, blob data can be converted between languages.
