One alternative to the common technique of a blank space is answered in the video, T-SQL: How To Use the SPACE Function. This function can be useful in situations where we may want to dynamically generate spaces and avoid using the apostrophe technique with generating spaces.

Some questions that are answered in the video:

  • How do we specify multiple spaces with the function?
  • What is an example of using space with a combination of other functions?

While seldom used, if we need to dynamically generate a space or set of spaces, we can call this function. In situations where we may have more than 1 or 2 spaces, it will be better to call this function over using the apostrophe technique to avoid any type of convoluted coding. In addition, for identifying or security hashes, we may want to consider using this function in these cases.
