Is this CF 5 or earlier?
If so, it is probably actually a NULL chr(0) character.
Notepad will get rid of it when you open and save the file.
CF 5 and earlier have trouble with strings containing NULLs, since it uses NULLs to mark the end of strings (I think).
The data is still in the string, but all of the output string functions stop at that character.
Solution? I don't have one. This is where Java and Custom Tags come in handy.

This sounds line an end -f line or carriage return character (or both)
Do a replace of each [chr(10) & chr(13); replace with white space or some marker for your illumination "~~~" or whatever ] in the variable and see if that helps.
Are you SURE it's not in the database, as well? Just kicked down a line?
