IGNORE_TRAILING_SPACES (SELECT Option)
IGNORE_TRAILING_SPACES causes comparisons to ignore trailing spaces. This option overrides the TDV Server’s Ignore Trailing Spaces configuration setting (under TDV Server > SQL Engine > SQL Language).
If IGNORE_TRAILING_SPACES is set to FALSE or not specified, TDV Server’s Ignore Trailing Spaces configuration setting determines how string comparisons are evaluated.
Note: When SELECT options are specified as part of a subquery or subselect, they might not affect the root-level query execution plan.
