10.12 String Parameters
Working with string parameters
You need string processing mainly to be able to read value from tables
and configuration data.
You can assign a linear sequence of characters (letters, numbers,
special characters and spaces) to a string parameter. You can also
check and process the assigned or imported values.
Assigning string parameters
You have to assign a string variable before you use it. Use the
DECLARE STRING command to do so.
