I actually didn't catch the "embedded" spaces but if you really wanted to removed embedded spaces you could use a REPLACE substring function in the query to do that.
In SQL Server it would be something like this: REPLACE ( 'string_expression1' , 'string_expression2' , 'string_expression3' ) ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of shawn gorrell Sent: Friday, April 18, 2008 9:07 AM To: discussion@acfug.org Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] QoQ question How would Trim() remove an embedded space? ----- Original Message ---- From: "McTure, Greg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: discussion@acfug.org Sent: Friday, April 18, 2008 8:54:51 AM Subject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] QoQ question Hi Scott: Couldn’t you use a TRIM function in the original query to eliminate the spaces?
