Hi

Example : If string xx is of 10 chars as

Ganesh,

If you got the answer then please also post it here. Other people may benefit from it as well.

U can remove the leading/trailing spaces (as illustrated in ur examples) by strip$(shiftl$(xx)) statement . To remove embedded space , u need to use pos / rpos function to find the space in a string .

long i
string istring(100)
string ostring(100)
ostring=""
for i=1 to len(istring)
if istring(i;1)<>" " ostring=ostring & istring(i;1)
endfor
