How do I find the procedures and triggers that have typical type casting problems?

A typical problem that is often not so easy to find is when a varchar(20) column is copied into a varchar (10) variable. In most cases it causes no problems, but when the source has more than 10 characters you get a runtime error. This will typically only happen in your customer’s database! To find these errors, just open the IBExpert menu item Tools / Stored Procedure/Trigger/View Analyzer and press [F9].
