texte = is there such a thing? i have this client that wanted to use user's real name to authenticate themselves when they subscribe but every week at least one new subscriber will call to ask why he can not log on. 99% of the time is because they've put an extra white space after their name. is there [trim] command? and if not - why not? i can just replace spaces but sometimes 'Mary Jo' will show up as a first name. the only solution is, i think, a loop that checks for empty space characters at the end and deleting them until it finds a character but [trim] would be so much better... is there [trim] in 6? thanks... ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
