rTrim removes spaces. If you want to remove one char from the end, you can use left.
<cfset newStr = left(oldStr,len(oldStr)-1)> This says, basically, take N characters from the left where N is the length minus one. You could also use a regex to replace a single quote at the end. This code shows how the regex will remove the quote at the end, but won't do anything if the quote isn't there... <cfset str = "Foo moo"""> <cfset str2 = "Ray"> <cfset str = reReplace(str,"""$","")> <cfset str2 = reReplace(str2,"""$","")> <cfoutput>#str# - #str2#</cfoutput> ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, ColdFusion Jedi Master for Mindseye, Inc Member of Team Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Blog : www.camdenfamily.com/morpheus/blog Yahoo IM : morpheus "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda > -----Original Message----- > From: Robert Orlini [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, March 10, 2003 7:59 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: strip quotes > > > Hello, > > I know this is an easy one, but I don't use CF all the time > so it escapes me. > > How do I strip quotes from a string?
