Hi once more. After you are shure in your SP/triggers, you can set
text to ' ' directly in system tables - IB have compiled code. But
there are some problems around it, if I remember right, triggers with
name starting with CHECK_ are called twice after text hiding. Other
information in system tables is used at every statement execution and
can't be hidden, at least now.

Best regards.
