Ansi_Padding Question

Hi all,
How do you determine if ansi_padding was set to on or off when a table
was created? Aside from inserting a record with trailing blanks, I
can't seem to find an answer.
Thanks,
Terryif (@.@.OPTIONS & 16 = 16)

To check the value in effect when a column was created, use COLUMNPROPERTY
SELECT COLUMNPROPERTY(table_id, column_name, 'UsesANSITrim')
Please see Books Online for more details.
