/VARIABLE:0S^/VARIABLE trims the LEADING & TRAILING spaces from a variable. But what if that last character looks like a space? And /VARIABLE still appears to have a space at the end of it?Try /VARIABLE:0XS^/VARIABLE. The :0X will replace non-printable characters with a space. Adding the 'S' to :0X trims the space added by :0X. Next time you're trying to remove spaces from the beginning or end of a value in NPR, try something like this: /VARIABLE:0XS^/VARIABLE.Example 1: VAL=(@pt.first.name:0XS)_" "_(@pt.last.name:0XS)Example 2: IF{@rich.text.line:0XS^/REPORT.LINE_.'=. /REPORT.LINE;"NO TEXT FOUND"}
